The Points of My Compass

Author: E.B. White
Stars: 5
Review by: KM

I was delighted. A collection of letters he sent to the New Yorker; each one is a gem, filled with, as the book jacket states, "impeccable prose." The content includes a wide range of topics such as commentary about buying a car, (in the late 1950's and early 1960's), pigeon and raccoon observations, the state of the U.N., and his high adventure on a steamer ship en route to Alaska and Siberia as a youth. If you like excellent writing and intelligent wit and humor, give it a try!
