The Garden of a Commuter’s Wife
Recorded by the Gardener, with eight photogravure illustrations
“‘The Garden of a Commuter’s Wife’ is a legend which gives no hint of the wit and wisdom and graceful phrase within its covers. The Commuter’s charming woman writes of her suburban garden, her original servants, and various other incidents which come in the course of living in a thoroughly human way. She reminds one of Elizabeth of ‘German Garden’ fame in more ways than one, but being American she is broader, more versatile and humorous, if not also more poetic. It breathes an air of cheery companionship, of flowers, birds, all nature, and the warm affection of human friendship. Its philosophy is wholesome, unselfish, and kindly, and the Commuter’s Wife, who writes her own memoirs, is one we would be glad to number among our friends.”—The Evening Post, Chicago.

People of the Whirlpool
From the Experience Book of a Commuter’s Wife
With eight illustrations
“They who have read ‘The Garden of a Commuter’s Wife’ know what to expect in this, ‘The Experience Book’ of the same delightful Barbara; but to the uninitiated, who light upon the book without preconceived ‘notions’ of what it is, it will come with a double note of delight.”—New York Times’ Saturday Review.
