Excerpt from The Best Short Stories of 1919, and the Yearbook of the American Short Story

A peculiar sort Of ethical rapture has earned the term American. And the reason is probably at least in part the fact that no land has ever sprung so nakedly as ours from a direct and consciously material impulse.
