Literary Notices on Sedgwick Howells Stevenson and Weyman
A review summarizing Anne Douglas Sedgwick’s A Fountain Sealed praised its psychological depth and Imogen Upton as a vivid heroine. It discusses W D Howells Between the Dark and the Daylight stories as uneven yet witty in places, plus Burton Stevenson That Affair at Elizabeth and Gotty and the Guv’nor by Arthur E. Copping as worthy imitations of seafaring humor. Stanley J. Weyman’s Laid Up in Lavender is seen as a weaker later collection, lacking the author’s earlier high standards.
