Book Description
Excerpt from Our Lady of the Beeches Dear Pessimist, - I have read your book through three times; my copy has grown very shabby; the covers are stained, - I dropped it in a brook; the margins are covered with penciled notes. In a word, I love the book. Does this justify my writing to you, an absolute stranger? By no means, I should say; and yet, safe among my beeches, I am not afraid of doing so.
