These books Iiave taken their place as classics 
ia the literature of New England village and 
Woods life. Mr. Robinson's characters are 
J>eculiar, quaint and lovable; one reads of them 
now with smiles and now with tears (and need 
tiot be ashamed to own to the tears). Mr. Rob- 
inson writes of nature with marvelous insight; 
his is the ready word, the phrase, to make a bit 
of landscape, a scene of outdoors, stand out clear 
and vivid, like a startling flashing out from the 
reader's own memory.
