In her pages we see him and his work as they have never appeared before. Through Longfellow, moreover, and through her own family connections as well, she knew many other distinguished men and women-New Englanders best of all, of course, yet by no means exclusively. In these pages, we catch vivid glimpses of Emerson, Hawthorne, and Whittier which we should not otherwise possess.
