Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters of Harry James Smith Harry James Smith was born in New Britain, Connecticut, May 24, 1880, seventh of the nine children of John B. and Lucy F. Smith. After finishing his High School course in 1897, he taught for several months in the District School at Cornwall Hollow, Connecticut. He entered Williams College, in the fall of 1898. There he was an honor student; and during his senior year was editor of the Williams "Literary Monthly" and a member of Gargoyle. The next year (1902-03) he was Assistant in the Biological Laboratory, preparing himself for the work by a summer´s study at Woods Hole. The summer of 1903 was happily spent in a wheel trip through France with Karl Weston. The next year (1903-04) he studied English at Harvard, receiving his Master´s degree; and in 1904-05 taught in the English Department at Oberlin College. In the autumn of 1905 he began his independent literary work, to which, except for a year on the editorial staff of the "Atlantic Monthly" (1906-07), he gave all his time until our entry into the war. Until 1909 he lived in New York and did various sorts of hack work in addition to a goodly number of short stories, poems, and his first novel, "Amedee´s Son" (1908). But in 1909, after a severe attack of appendicitis, with a protracted convalescence, he came to his home in Berlin, Connecticut, giving all his time to creative work.
