The stories are from 1899 to 1928, and there are certain threads that pass through all of them. There's the Christmassy stories- making Christmas cheerful for someone who can't afford it, women-haters or man-haters who become reconciled to the opposite sex in time, old maids getting married, long-lost loves that come back, orphans who find a family member after all (rich, at times), and all sorts of absolutely delicious things.
