Abstract
As a biologist, Theodore Sargent has taken a different approach to the life and work of Massachusetts writer Elaine Goodale Eastman. For instance, he admires her childhood poetry published when she was living at Sky Farm in the Berkshires. He likes her "eye for detail and skill with words," although many literary scholars have dismissed her verse as conventional in form and sentimental in content.
