Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from The Outlook for American Prose

Entertaining collections of newspaper essays, and write a preface in the form of a review Of the book I was offering the public, calling attention to as many as possible of the weak points Of the book, and so disarming criticism on these points as far as pos sible. I should find fault with the author for coming back so often to the same writers; for being so nucet tain, or so vacillating, in his opinion upon a given writer; for not knowing just what he thinks, in the end, of the outlook for American prose. And then I should point out the weakness he shows in not allying himself with any particular school Of writ.
