Aunt Jane of Kentucky by Eliza Calvert Hall (pen name of Eliza Caroline Obenchain), published by Little, Brown, and Company of Boston. This copy carries an 1908 title-page date, a later printing following the book's first publication in March 1907; the copyright page reflects the layered history of these stories, which originally appeared in Cosmopolitan Magazine in the late 1890s and early 1900s before being collected into book form. Illustrated with a color frontispiece and interior plate by Beulah Strong. This charming regionalist story collection, narrated in Kentucky dialect, is best remembered today for its title story and for the "crazy quilt" story that has become associated with early folklore of the American quilting and women's social history tradition.
