This article focuses on two books—"The High Romance: A Spiritual Autobiography," by Michael Williams and "Fields and Battlefields." From fiction in the form of autobiography and autobiography in the form of fiction people seem to have progressed to a form of chronicle in which personal experience and fancy are still less distinguishably blended. "The High Romance," like Hamlin Garland's recent "A Son of the Middle Border," is mainly the story of a man by himself. But the self that writes is a writing self, conscious of "literary" backgrounds and objectives.
