“Lady Ritchie knew what was interesting and what was not; she
lived intensely in her memories, and she can take her readers to live
in them with her.”

The story is of the Wyoming cattle country at the time when the
struggle for existence was on between the cattle rangers and the
sheep-raising homesteaders. Little by little the latter were
encroaching upon the former’s grazing lands. Three figures stand out
in the tale, Zang Whistler, the cattle-thieving outlaw, Original Bill
Blunt, inspector for the Stockman’s alliance, and Hilma Ring, a
sheepherder’s daughter, a dazzling but heartless beauty. A lonely life
of hardship and struggle had cut her off from all femininity and
hardened her heart. It is the taming of this shrew that tempts both
Zang and Original. Amid killings and rough horse-play, during which
Hilma has her fill of terror, loneliness and despair, nursing her
hatred for Original, the latter’s character and power finally subdue
and awaken the woman in her. Even Zang, whose wild career is but
an offshoot of his inherent integrity, receives Hilma’s recognition of
his loyalty and devotion.
“If these grotesque and morbid tales were just a bit better, they
might even be great! But failing of greatness, they are so horrible as
to be occasionally funny.”
“The horror of the truth in daily life is greater than the horror Mr
Robbins seeks in his imaginative and improbable wanderings among
murderers and spirits.” R. D. W.
“The author has dipped his pen in blood while steeping his literary
ego in diablerie, and the outcome is a feast of melodrama and
morbidity that leads logically to nightmare.”

This collection of poems falls into three parts: Poems; The dark
years; and Other poems. John Masefield writes a preface to the
collection and says of the author: “When I think of the poems, I feel
that he must be young; not young enough perhaps to have been
carried away, or destroyed, by the recent great events, but young
enough to see them clearly, to respond to them, and to realize that
the tragedy of them has been the tragedy of the young, the blasting of
the young, for the benefit and at the bidding of the old.... That, in the
main, is the tragedy of Mr Roberts’ latest and best poems, in the
volume here printed.” In another place he says of the poet: “He has a
quick eye for characters, a lively sense of rhythm, and a fondness for
people, which should make his future work as remarkable as his
present promise.”
“These labored verses move us not at all. The book is full of echoes
and infelicitous imitations. The book, in short, is full of clichés of
thought and phrase.” H: A. Lappin
“The many lyric poems are a flower-garden in which the reader can
spend a long time, and to which he will want to return. Mr Roberts
writes gracefully and melodiously, and is never elaborate or
artificial.”
(Eng ed 20–6572)
“It is only the first part of the book, in which Dr Roberts states his
social theory, that in the view of the writer of this note exposes itself
to criticism.” T. M. Ave-Lallemant

The author informs his readers that he is tired of being funny, that
he has had a collapse and needs a complete rest, and he is going to
tell about his holiday in the country in his natural serious and solemn
manner. By the skin of his teeth he succeeds in escaping from home
without his wife and the entire family. His haven of rest is the
Sunrise Arms of Little Slocum. The dream and the reality of Little
Slocum are not quite the same. He almost succumbs to the
ministrations of the sewing-bee of Little Slocum mothers, but after a
ten mile flight in pajamas and mackintosh and rubber boots he
catches a train that takes him back to the city. The illustrations by
John Hassall add to the solemnity of the book.
“We cannot say that we have been vastly exhilarated by ‘My rest
cure.’”

“‘Old New England houses’ has about one hundred sumptuously
printed views, mostly of the type of plain, unpretentious small
country houses of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, which
we roughly classify as ‘colonial,’ though quite a few of the more
pretentious mansion type of house, such as were built by the
wealthier merchants and shipmasters in the larger coast towns, are
included. The subjects are selected from an artistic rather than an
architectural or antiquarian viewpoint. The first few pages are given
to an untechnical talk on the varied types and styles of houses and
where one may hunt for them with reasonable chance of success, but
the greater part of the book is devoted to the pictures of the houses
themselves, an entire page being usually given to each print.”—

“Like most books of the sort, ‘Old New England houses’ is more to
be valued for its pictures than for its text. Here the text, however, is
entirely adequate as a brief introduction to upward of a hundred
photographs.”

“Edwin Arlington Robinson can say more in two lines than most
poets can in several verses. His vision is somber; it is marked by an
uncompromising consistency in the handling of eternal values.” H. S.
Gorman
“It has been well thought out, well felt and well made. This is not
to say that it is a great poem, however, or that no important criticism
can be brought against it. When he draws personality the lines are
firm and flawless. But can he show us the color and texture of life,
and make us feel the heat of it in those old days of myth and magic?”
Marguerite Wilkinson

“Edwin Arlington Robinson’s new volume of miscellaneous poems,
‘The three taverns’ is likely to earn him—if he has not already earned
—a reputation as the Henry James among poets. His fondness for
portraying the complex facets of character in an oblique light and by
means of inscrutable hints and sinuous innuendoes has led him to
further workings of the vein of dramatic lyric opened four years ago
by his famous ‘Ben Johnson entertains a man from Stratford.’ The
present collection contains seven long poems of this sort, revealing in
monolog or dialog a moment in the life of St Paul, Lazarus, Brown of
Harper’s ferry, Hamilton, and real or imagined people of lesser
note.”—Springf’d Republican
“‘The man against the sky’ indicated very clearly the place of the
poet, it was very high—how high we had not the standards by which
to measure. ‘The three taverns’ brings us much nearer to him, closer
within the embrace of his sympathies, and, by the same law, lifts him
much farther above us.” S: Roth
“Mr Robinson’s verse, as always, flows with limpid purity, but his
quaintly compounded vocabulary and his intellectual penetration
compel the closest attention to his pages. Readers who have the
patience or the agility to follow Mr Robinson are not meanly
rewarded.”

A story of the last days of the war and the period immediately
following. The scene is laid in a village of Lorraine. Here Daniel
Steele, an American Friend who has come to France to do relief and
reconstruction work, falls under the spell of Joan le Jeune, the maid
of Mirabelle. When Daniel had left home he had taken with him the
promise of his foster-sister Faith to be his wife on his return. But for
a little time Joan makes him forget Faith, and Joan, to whom he
brings the romance of strange lands, almost forgets her own soldier
lover Jean. But when Jean is under suspicion she turns to him, and
Daniel, too, recovering from a wound, finds his thoughts bound up in
Faith and is ready to return to his own country leaving Joan to her
happiness.
