1909. Tarkington was one of the most popular American novelist and dramatist of his time, winning two Pulitzer Prizes for his novels The Magnificent Ambersons and Alice Adams. A Christmas classic featuring a crippled boy and politician. The book begins: The maple-bordered street was as still as a country Sunday; so quiet that there seemed an echo to my footsteps. It was four o'clock in the morning; clear October moonlight misted through the thinning foliage to the shadowy sidewalk and lay like a transparent silver fog upon the house of my admiration, as I strode along, returning from my first night's work on the Wainwright Morning Dispatch.
