"Mr. Hewlett is one of those rare and happy authors who make niches for themselves quite apart from the ordinary trend of literature, where invidious comparisons cannot reach them. The quaint, mediaeval quality of his 'Forest Lovers ' has cast its spell over countless readers even while they questioned wherein that spell could lie. And so it is with his latest volume." -"Commercial Advertiser." "The range of his art would alone proclaim his remarkable quality as an author.... But what impresses the reader in Mr. Hewlett's scope is not merely its inclusion of many types and passions, of diverse scenes and colors, but that it involves uniformly a sure and easy seizure of the fundamental things lying unchanged forever beneath the surface " -"New York Tribune." "The style is forceful and picturesque, and the stories are so true to their locality that they read almost like translations." -"New York Times."bb "His picturesqueness and the other qualities of his style arc all his own, and they reveal an artistic charm that is at times fascinating, and is always attractive." -"Chicago Tribune." -All of these are from an advertisement in Book Reviews, Volume 7 [1899]

Excerpt from In a Green Shade: A Country Commentary The title has become equivocal, since there are more green shades in employment now than were dreamed of by Andrew Marvell. Science is a great maker of homophones, without respect for the poets. There is, for instance, the demilune of lined buckram borne by the weak-eyed on their foreheads, the phylactery of the have-beens - I lay myself open to be believed a cripple, or to look an old fool. A vivacious reviewer in Punch's "Booking Office," will have a vision of me as a babbling elder peering at society from below a green pent. However - I must risk it. It says exactly what I mean; and what I have written I have written. The point is that, having worked hard for a good many years, I can now consider my latter end under conditions favourable to leisurely and extended thought, sometimes in a garden made, if rightly made, in my own image, sometimes in a house which was built aforetime, in a day when men wrought for posterity as well as for themselves. In such seed-plots it is impossible that one's thoughts should not take colour as they rise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
