A Humble Romance and Other Stories is a collection of short stories first published in 1887. Widely popular upon publication, the stories tell of rural New England folks, mostly women. Each story is engrossing, yet surprising in its simplicity of characters and plot. Far from beautiful heiresses or men on panting steeds, the main characters are mostly old spinsters and sometimes a plain niece or two.
