Excerpt from The Maturity of James Whitcomb Riley: Fortune's Way With the Poet in the Prime of Life and After

The author's first volume - The Youth of James Whitcomb Riley - according to friendly reviewers, has more than biographic value. It is almost the story of the youth of Indiana, wrote a generous critic, or the story of our great Middle West. Impelled by in herent individualism, the central figure rises from primitive beginnings, and, catching at apparently trivial, haphazard and often serio-comic opportunities, lifts itself in obedience to some secret spring of power within, and emerging at last into a gracious maturity, presents the spectacle of a strong, admirable personal ity, well worth the careful study and whole-hearted approval of a critical world.
