Autorenporträt
Samuel Scoville Jr. was an American writer, born in 1879, whose literary contributions mainly rest in the domain of juvenile literature and nature essays. A graduate of Yale, where he was awarded four degrees, Scoville went on to practice law, yet he also harbored a passion for literature and natural history that found expression in his writing (Stewart, 1920). Best known for his book 'Brave Deeds of Union Soldiers' (1915), Scoville celebrated the heroism and fortitude exemplified by soldiers during the Civil War. The book itself stands as a testament to his interest in historical accounts and his ability to narrate with a compelling clarity, engaging younger audiences with tales of valor and courage. His narrative style often merged a lawyer's precision with a storyteller's flair for drama, making his historical works both informative and captivating. Apart from his involvement in literature, Scoville was also notable for his nature writings and was a regular contributor to publications like 'Bird-Lore' and the 'Saturday Evening Post', where his essays demonstrated his keen observational skills and his profound appreciation for the natural world. Through his eclectic body of work, Samuel Scoville has left a modest yet indelible mark on early 20th-century American literature, especially in the realms of historical accounts for young readers and nature writing (King, 1989).
