Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Park-Street Papers The papers now gathered into this volume in the author´s tenth year of service as editor of The Atlantic Monthly are concerned with the magazine itself, with its pleasant home in Park Street and with some of the writers who have given distinction to its pages. Under the general title of "Atlantic Prologues" I have reprinted some of the brief Toastmaster addresses with which in recent years, I have been in the habit of introducing each January number of the magazine. Although these informal addresses discuss primarily the surroundings and spirit of the Atlantic Monthly they may also serve to suggest some of the constant problems involved in the art and mystery of magazine editing. It has happened that the centenaries of the births of several of the most famous early contributors to the Atlantic have fallen within the period of my own editorship. The essays upon Hawthorne, Longfellow, and Whittier are studies prompted by these anniversary occasions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
