Welcome back everyone to one thousand one classic short stories and tales. This is your

host John Haggadorn. I've got a couple of great Zing Gray stories for you today

again continuing from the young pitcher which he wrote in

1911, which gives you a great bird's eye view of what college baseball was like

about a hundred and ten years ago. Before that begins, I want to let all of you know that there's another place at

1001 to find great classic short stories, and that's at 1001 stories from the Gilded Age.

That's 1,001 stories from the Gilded Age.

There I narrate both short stories and popular novels

from the period between 1875 and 1919, which combines a couple of literary

and social eras, mostly Victorian and Edwardian, in proper English, The Guilden Age,

in American vernacular.

Simply go to your podcast host and search for 1,001 stories from the Guilded Age,

and you'll find a great mix of mostly women authors who give us some of the best short stories in classic history

from Kate Schopen to Catherine Mansfield to Susan Claspo to Lucy Mod Montgomery and

many others and you'll also find my narrations of classics such as Black Beauty, The Secret Garden,

the Great Gatsby, Anne of Green Gables, and others. Long or short, these are all classic stories from the greatest age in literature, the

Gilded Age. You can also look up one thousand one stories from the

guilded age at our new website at best of one thousand1 Stories.com.

That's Best of 1001 Stories.com.

Remember, that's 1001 Stories from the Guild of Age

and treat yourself to a whole new selection of great

classic short stories in addition to this
