Autrefois l'un des auteurs les plus reconnus du Vermont, Rowland Evans Robinson est aujourd'hui largement méconnu des lecteurs contemporains. Artiste de formation qui dessinait des caricatures pour les journaux de New York, il est retourné à la vie rurale et a signé des livres populaires. Ses écrits capturent souvent l'essence de la nature et de la vie à la ferme, et malgré une perte de vision progressive jusqu'à la cécité, il a continué à écrire avec l'aide de sa femme, créant une œuvre qui témoigne de l'attrait durable de la campagne.
