Two New England books review both praise and critique
Critic surveys Louis Auchincloss The Winthrop Covenant and Henry Beetle Hough To the Harbor Light. Auchincloss crafts a three century vision of authority and resistance tied to the Winthrop name, while Hough offers meditative, aphoristic prose from a private Yankee perspective. Both affirm a stubborn New England spirit amid changing times.
