Rowland Evans Robinson, kdysi jeden z nejznámějších vermontských autorů, je dnes pro většinu čtenářů téměř neznámý. Zpočátku umělec, který kreslil pro noviny v New Yorku, se vrátil na venkov a psal o přírodě a životě na farmě. Navzdory postupnému oslepnutí pokračoval v psaní s pomocí své ženy, čímž vytvořil díla, která často zachycují krásu venkovského života.
