MEDITATIONS IN MOTLEY.By WALTER BLACKBURN HARTEMeditations in Motley reveals a new American essayist, honest and whimsical, with a good deal of decorative plain speaking. An occasional carelessness of style is redeemed by unfailing insight.—I. Zangwill inThe Pall Mall Magazinefor April, 1895.Philip Hale, the well-known and brilliant literary and musical critic, writes: “Walter Blackburn Harte is beyond doubt and peradventure, the leading essayist in Boston to-day. For Boston, perhaps you had better read “The United States.” His matter is original and brave, his style is clear, polished when effect is to be gained thereby, blunt when the blow should fall, and at times delightfully whimsical, rambling, paradoxical, fantastical.”Mr. Harte is not always so good in the piece as in the pattern, but he is a pleasant companion, and I have met with no volume of essays from America since Miss Agnes Repplier’s so good as his Meditations in Motley.—Richard Le Gallienne, in the LondonReview.PRICE, CLOTH, $1.25.Address ROYCROFT PRINTING SHOP,East Aurora, N.
