1927. A collection of essays on writers and books by the late
Stuart Sherman, all of which exhibit his theory of the function of
a critic in a time of change as being that of revealing to the
public those qualities which are truly vital and significant in the
writings of the day. Among the personalities discussed, for
instance are Sandburg, Lincoln, Thoreau, Burroughs, Beebe, Mark
Twain, Dean Briggs, Dreiser, Mark Sullivan, Ring W. Lardner, George
Moore, Walter de la Mare, Edith Wharton, Anatole France. They
constitute a series of essays which fully explain that pre-eminence
as an American critic which Stuart Sherman had come to hold.
