Literature, Modern -- 20th century -- Periodicals
A clever, pungent book which accounts for and defends the
Post-Impressionist School, showing it to be allied with vital art
throughout its history. It is by a man who has a keen interest in
life and art, and can express himself tersely, with flashes of
humor. It has created a lively discussion in England.

S. S. McCLURE’S AUTOBIOGRAPHY
“Goes on the same shelf with Jacob Riis’ _The Making of an
American_, Booker Washington’s _Up from Slavery_ and Mary Antin’s
_The Promised Land_.”—_Brooklyn Eagle._ The Scotch-Irish boy who
came here to do his best tells of his rise in a simple,
fascinating way. As the editor who introduced to us Kipling,
Stevenson, and others equally famous, and first brought American
magazines into national affairs, he gives a remarkable inside
view of our letters and national life. Illustrated. _$1.75 net._
