Review:
"Was it not in Garland that American farmers first talked like farmers? Was it not Garland who among the very first dedicated his career to realism? Was it not Garland who, almost alone in the eighties, sat in the Boston Public Library writing out of his loneliness and poverty those first realistic stories that were to guide others to a new literature in America? It is true."--Alfred Kazin, On Native Grounds: An Interpretation of Modern American Prose Literature--Alfred Kazin
From the Back Cover:
Main-Travelled Roads contains eleven stories in this expanded and revised 1922 edition of an undisputed American classic.Although Garland paints no pretty pictures, he offers exhilarating moments in the lives of these farm people and never ignores the strength of individual will.
