From Wikipedia:

Ingathering: The Complete People Stories, also known as Ingathering: The Complete People Stories of Zenna Henderson, is a 1995 collection of science fiction stories by American science fiction and fantasy author Zenna Henderson. It was edited by Mark L. Olson and Priscilla Olson and published in Massachusetts by the New England Science Fiction Association's NESFA Press as part of their "Choice series". The book contains all seventeen stories Henderson wrote about the People, a group of benevolent humanoid aliens stranded on Earth and struggling to fit in.

The People stories were originally published in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction between 1952 and 1980, and novelized, with bridging narratives by Henderson, in two collections, Pilgrimage: The Book of the People (1961) and The People: No Different Flesh (1966). Ingathering includes the 1961 and 1966 collections, four addition People stories published after the aforementioned collections, plus a previously unpublished story, "Michal Without". Ingathering also contains an essay on the People series by Henderson, originally published in The Great Science Fiction Series (1980), plus an introduction to the collection by Priscilla Olson and a People stories chronology by Mark Olson and Priscilla Olson.

Ingathering was generally well received by critics. It was a second place finalist in the 1996 Locus Award for Best Collection, and was included in David Brin's "Science Fiction for Young Adults: A Recommended List". Henderson's 1958 novella "Captivity" was a finalist for the 1959 Hugo Award for Best Novelette, and her 1955 novelette "Pottage" was loosely adapted into a 1972 television film, The People.
