Romances And Realities: Tales Of Truth And Fancy is a collection of short stories written by Amelia Edith Huddleston Barr and published in 1876. The book consists of a total of 12 stories, each one exploring different themes and genres. The stories in the collection are a mix of romances and realistic tales, hence the title.

One of the standout stories in the collection is The Black Shilling, which follows the journey of a shilling coin as it changes hands and affects the lives of those who possess it. Another notable story is The Household of McNeil, which explores the lives of a family living in poverty in Scotland.Overall, Romances And Realities: Tales Of Truth And Fancy is a thought-provoking collection of stories that showcases Barr's skill as a writer and her ability to capture the complexities of human nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
