"Some of the finest examples of contemporary, genuinely American prose." -- Washington Post
"His voice rumbles with authority through sentences of surpassing grace. In his more than fifty years at The New Yorker, White set a standard of writerly craft for that supremely well-wrought magazine. In genial, perfectly poised essay after essay, he has wielded the English language with as much clarity and control as any Americanof his time." -- Baymond Sokolov, Newsweek
"The abiding spirit of these essays is humane, compassionate, traditionalistic. No matter what his subject, White always keeps his eye on the long view and the larger perspective. There are times when I feel his work is as much a national resource as the Liberty Bell, a call to the best andnoblest in us." -- Jonathan Yardley, San Francisco Examiner --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
