This 1895 collection of verse, gorgeously illustrated by Howard Pyle, contains among other poems ‘The Bewildered Guest, ‘ ‘Midway, ‘ ‘From Generation to Generation, ‘ ‘The Burden, ‘ ‘Reward and Punishment, ‘ and ‘Friends and Foes.’ After losing his daughter a few years before, Howells proved with this collection that he was not an irrepressible optimist.
