Amherst Sketches is a collection of light prose pieces selected from the Amherst Literary Monthly, a publication that ran from 1881 to 1897. The book, first published in 1892, includes a variety of essays, short stories, and sketches by various authors, all of whom were students at Amherst College in Massachusetts. The pieces cover a range of topics, from college life and campus traditions to more general musings on love, nature, and society. The book offers a glimpse into the literary culture of Amherst College in the late 19th century and provides a unique perspective on the thoughts and experiences of young writers of the time. Leroy Phillips, the editor of the collection, was himself a student at Amherst and went on to become a successful journalist and author.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
