Autobiography of a New England Farm House:

 A novel of singtdar power and beauty, great originality and rugged force. 

 Born and bred on Cape Cod, the author, at the winter firesides of country 

 people, very conservative of ancient English customs now gone, heard curious 

 '.alk of kings, Puritan ministers, the war and precedent struggle of our Revolu- 

 tion, and touched a race of men and women now passed away. He also heard, 

 ohietly from ancient women, tlie traditions of ghosts, witches and Indians, as 

 <hey are preserved, and to a degree believed, by honest Christian folk, in the 

 very teeth of modern progress. These things are embodied in this book.
