Joseph Crosby Lincoln

Excerpt from Joseph Crosby Lincoln: An Appreciation As a matter of fact, Mr. Lincoln does not have to study Cape Codders. He is, of course, one of them. His verv speech marks him as such - the slightly clipped, curt words; the hev and bed that once in a while take the place of have or had, and even (whisper it) a touch of good old Yankee. Talking through his nose. His great success has brought him to that happy stage. Enjoyed bv comparatively few authors, where his work is actually sought bv editors for magazine publication years in advance of its being written. His books are eagerly sought out by theatrical producers for plavs and motion pictures. A play based upon his novel, Shavings, has been one of the real dramatic successes of recent years.
