ROWLAND E. ROBINSON’S 
Danvis Books. 
These books have taken their place as classics in the 
literature of New England village and woods life. Mr. 
Robinson’s characters are peculiar, quaint and lovable; 
one reads of them now with smiles and now with tears 
(and need not be ashamed to own to the tears). Mr. 
Robinson writes of nature with marvelous insight; his is 
the ready word, the phrase, to make a bit of landscape, a 
scene of outdoors, stamd out clear and vivid like a 
startling flashing out from the reader’s own memory.
