I Love Galesburg in the Springtime by Jack Finney

3.0

Light and enjoyable, though clearly dated in many ways: a pair of magic glasses that lets the male wearer see through women's dresses so that they appear to be walking down the street in their underwear; women referred to as girls; and so on.

I particularly enjoyed the title story, "A Possible Candidate for the Presidency", "The Intrepid Aeronaut" and the final story, "The Love Letter".

A good collection for dipping into while travelling, or in between other books, rather than reading the stories one after the other.
