Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Home Town Mind No one´s home town is the exclusive hero of this collection. During the past twenty years more than half a dozen communities from New England to Texas have sustained the burden of the author´s residence and suffrages. I have drawn freely upon the civic temperamental symptoms of most of them. Furthermore, one´s friends have home towns and to an editorial desk comes the press of home towns one has not been privileged to know by personal visitation. Whatever has seemed to me to express the home town mind vividly, significantly or amusingly, I have ventured to include. For the home town mind is not the peculiar individuality - if any - of Pittsburgh or Vicksburg. We are a sociable and highly imitative race, incessantly eager to conform to new conventions.
