Présentation de l'éditeur

Eugene Field, I have endeavored to give a pen picture of that gifted writer just as he lived and worked among those nearest and dearest ;to show something of the beauty of his great talents, his happy, mirthful nature, his childlike simplicity, as blended into the life of an earnest, ardent student and author. Love was the bread he cast upon the waters, and love has returned to him a thousand-fold.
