Nothing Ever Happens Here
Poet, author of many books, and a country gentleman, ARCHIBALD RUTLEDGE lives and writes on his eighteenthcentury plantation in the deep woods of South Carolina. His encounters with wild boars, alligators, and diamondbacks, the more obstreperous of his neighbors, add adventure to his days and color to his books, of which we recall Old Plantation Days (1911), Children of Swamp and Wood (1927), Tales of Dogs (1929), An American Hunter (1937), and Home by the River (1941).
