Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial Volume: Selections From the Prose and Poetical Writings of the Late John Savary The selections from the writings of the late John Savary are offered to his friends in the spirit "that though dead he still speaketh." Mr. Savary was a prolific as well as a versatile writer. "A poet, historian and naturalist," as was said of Goldsmith, "Who left scarcely any style of writing untouched, And touched nothing that he did not adorn." These selections, though not so varied as Mr. Savary´s writings admitted, are restricted to the preservation of those some of his friends deemed desirable for preservation, and are gathered in this form to meet their desire. They are published in pursuance of a provision of his will. The selections, out of an enormous mass of fragmentary material, are the work of Mrs. Mary Sibley, assisted by her daughter, Mrs. Clover S. Karcher, and Mrs. Jane H. Shernway and her daughter Marion, all of Dorchester, Mass., and all related to the testator. It has been done in the spirit of kinship and affection and is very satisfactory. The editorial arrangement of the book in preparation for publication fell to the hand of Mr. John Albee, whose special fitness for the task will be very readily recognized, since he was a lifelong friend and college mate.
