About this title

Review:

Seldom given as much attention as they deserve, the archetypal Ohioan Anderson's last sixteen years in and around Virginia are the focus of this helpfully introduced and unobtrusively annotated selection of essays. . . . These essays, all vintage Anderson in style and tone, help explain the last phase of a seminal American literary career. Recommended for all libraries.--Library Journal
