This volume contains Stewart Edward White's 1903 children's story, "The Magic Forest: A Modern Fairy Story". It tells the tale of a boy who sleepwalks off a train and into a forest in Canada. With no memory of his unconscious ramblings, he believes that he's been transported into a fairy tale, and embarks on a fantastic adventure with a Native American tribe. Ideal bedtime reading material, "The Magic Forest: A Modern Fairy Story" would make for a great addition to the family bookshelf, and is not to be missed by fans of White's work. Stewart Edward White (1873-1946) was an American novelist and spiritualist. Other notable works by this author include: "The Long Rifle" (1930), "Folded Hills" (1932), and "Ranchero" (1933). Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Notă biografică

Stewart Edward White was an American author, novelist, and spiritualist who lived from 12 March 1873 until September 18, 1946. He was Gilbert White's brother, a well-known muralist. White, the son of Mary E. (Daniel) and lumberjack Thomas Stewart White, was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He graduated from the University of Michigan after graduating from Grand Rapids High School (B.A., 1895; M.A., 1903). He wrote adventure and travel-related fiction and non-fiction from around 1900 to roughly 1922, with a focus on natural history and outdoor living. Beginning in 1922, he and his wife Elizabeth "Betty" Grant White published a number of publications they claimed to have received through mediumship. Additionally, they wrote about their excursions throughout the state of California. White passed away at the age of 73 in Hillsborough, California. At a period when America was losing its wildness, White's writings were well-liked. He was an astute observer of both natural and human beauty, and he could express them simply. He added witty and entertaining information about cabin-building, paddling, logging, gold-searching, and weapons, as well as fishing and hunting, whether he was writing camping journals or Westerns, based on his own experience.
