Description
William O Stoddard wrote a boys' tale of winter sports and farm life. Charles Scribner's Sons issued Winter Fun in New York in 1885. Stoddard had written Dab Kinzer, The Quartet, and Saltillo Boys. Nineteen chapters run from a fireplace circle to a flood at the end.
A red cutter, earned by a month of hard work, opens the tale with pride. Mrs Stebbins eyes her son's prize with sharp, fond doubt at the gate. Rabbit hunts, coasting, ice sports, a snow fort, and a sugar bush follow. Boys of the time got a warm, full picture of cold-season fun.
