“It has a quality that renders it easily read from beginning to end. This happy issue must be ascribed in due degree to the author’s admirable style and control of his material; but while the book is a model of what a thesis should be, it possesses, besides its usefulness as a work of reference, a human interest that is altogether compelling.” F: W. Williams

WILSON, CAROLYN CROSBY.[[2]] Fir trees and fireflies. *$1.75 Putnam 811
Poems on varied themes. Among the titles are: Mid winter; The patchwork quilt; Houseless; On the arrogance of lovers; Roads; December; Two songs for my child; Late March. These miscellaneous verses are followed by a series of love sonnets. Some of the pieces are reprinted from Vanity Fair, New Republic, Pagan and Vassar Miscellany.
“There is a certain nicety of phrasing, evenness and melody of line that raises them out of the ordinary and yet they are by no means pallid bits. Throughout, there is upon these poems, some greater, some less, the unmistakable hallmark of distinction.”
