Canterbury Tales is a collection of short stories and novellas, written by Harriet Lee and Sophia Lee and published in five volumes from 1797 to 1805. Sophia's contributions consisted of two tales and the narrative introduction to the first volume; the rest of the work is Harriet's, and formed the basis of Harriet Lee's legacy as an author.
