Tales of Kankakee Land is a collection of short stories written by Charles Henry Bartlett and published in 1904. The book is set in the Kankakee River Valley, a region in northeastern Illinois known for its natural beauty and rich history. The stories are fictional but draw heavily on the author's experiences growing up in the area.The book is divided into two parts, each containing several stories. The first part focuses on the early settlers of Kankakee Land, their struggles and triumphs, and the impact they had on the region. The second part features more contemporary tales, exploring themes such as love, loss, and redemption.Bartlett's writing style is simple and straightforward, with a focus on character development and storytelling. He paints a vivid picture of the Kankakee River Valley, its people, and its history, bringing the region to life for readers. The book is a testament to Bartlett's love for his hometown and his desire to share its stories with the world.Overall, Tales of Kankakee Land is a charming and engaging collection of stories that offers a glimpse into the history and culture of a unique region of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
