This autobiography of the American writer and Emerson scholar John Kendrick Bangs, published in 1926, is divided into two parts: "Ghosts I have met," which begins with a nostalgic Spenserian exposition of his European travels and travels to the Butteries Library, where he met several famous literary ghosts, among them as peers with Jean Paul, Arthur Rimbaud, Algernon Swinburne, and Charles Baudelaire and a host of amorous encounters; and "Some other ghosts," that cover a wealth of literary and intellectual relationships and allusions to classic literature. These include striking statements about Victor Hugo, Heinrich Heine, Jane Austen, Romeo and Juliet, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Edgar Allen Poe, the Viennese Brothers Grimm, Walt Whitman, Thomas Carlyle, Queen Guinevere, Coriolanus, Ann Radcliffe, George Washington, Oliver Goldsmith, Harold Pratt Judson, Dwight MacDonald, Grant Allen, Williams James, Nathaniel Hawthorne, William Wordsworth, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Henry David Thoreau.
