(Maxwell) Struthers Burt: was born in Philadelphia (1882), educated at Princeton (1904), and Merton College, Oxford. He has been a newspaper reporter and an instructor in English (Princeton). Now he runs a “dude ranch” in Wyoming—takes 35 boarders. He has written Songs and Portraits (verse), Chance Encounters, and John O’May (short stories). Mr. Burt’s novel tries to view the contemporary scene and to make some interpretation of it. “Work,” says Gulian, “work that fills every crevice of your passion for work; love, as much a part of you as your breath; and a background of quiet beauty.” (Time Magazine, 1924)Collection
