Page\'s first book, a collection of short stories titledIn Ole Virginia or Marse Chan and Other Stories, was published by Charles Scribner\'s in 1887. Set in the postbellum South while often recalling the splendors of antebellum life, these six tales included the four that had appeared previously inCenturyandHarper\'swhile adding the unpublished \"No Haid Pawn\" and \"Polly: A Christmas Recollection.\" Of Page\'s short stories, perhaps \"Marse Chan\" has received the most critical attention. In addition to making frequent use of dialect, it typifies those idealized qualities of old southern life Page so frequently celebrates.
