The article focuses on the book "Hurbert Parry, His Life and Works," by Charles L. Graves. The book is a biography of English composer Hurbert parry. The present book illustrates him as a human being of rare and fine quality honest, fearless, magnanimous, wholly free from snobbery, and endearingly subject to prejudice though always seeking the truth with the full devotion of his candid, thorough, and often boldly original mind. He disliked artistic pretense as much as social. He called a well-known essayist "the most foulmouthed, conceited, toadying little snob" he had ever met.
