Audio Reviews:

"...an intimate portrait of White, enhanced by his son Joel's readings...[and] leaving us with what has seemed like a very real visit with E.B.White. This collection should be prized..."
                     starEarphones Award, AudioFile

"This sampler, complete with comments, is read by White's son, Joel (who died in 1997). ...it is a listening experience that cannot be replicated."
                     -Library Journal

"Listeners who know White from his writings for children will delight in this collection of works for adults. The classic "A Letter to the IRS" is by itself well worth the price of admission."
                     -Kliatt

SYNOPSIS:

Famous for his columns in Harper's and The New Yorker magazines, revered for his essays in One Man's Meat and The Elements of Style and immortalized through his classic children's books Charlotte's Web, The Trumpet of the Swan and Stuart Little (all of which are available unabridged through Audio Bookshelf), E.B.White's favorites from his own writings are read lovingly by his late son Joel. Joel White's introductory comments make this recording unique.

Writings included are: Letter to the IRS, Once More to the Lake, The Ring of Time, The Sea and the Wind, Excerpts from One Man's Meat, Letters, Poems.
