Annotation: 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.
