Wilmon Brewer

When he was a young man, the family of his future wife, Katharine Hay More, purchased the property from Brewer's parents.

This study provides commentary on the Brookes More (Brewer's father-in-law) translation of Ovid's work, which is recognized as one of the masterpieces of the golden age of Latin literature (written in AD 8, by this famous Roman poet).

Brewer's book traces the Greek and Roman origins of the epic poem, as well as the subsequent influence on later European writers, such as Chaucer and Shakespeare.

Professor Kenneth Murdock, head of American literature at Harvard, ordered a number of copies of Brewer's book on Parker as an excellent example for his students on how to write a biography.

Brewer and his wife were adventurous world travelers throughout their lives and an extensive diary of their trips is included in the autobiography.
