Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dream Children
John Halifax never had a baby of her own, but scarce a mother does not murmur to her upheld baby boy, Philip, my king! And Charles Lamb never gathered child of his to his knee, to hearken to tales of their ancestors, but so real did he make his little Alice and John that one cannot think of Charles Lamb in the great Beyond, without those identical children that he wanted so much, so much, forever at his knee. And not Whittier, nor Stevenson, nor Riley, nor Hans Andersen, nor many another who has dreamed the sweetest dreams of childhood, ever knew child of his own in the ?esh. But in their Dream Children they live on.
