By making himself a literary craftsman equal to and in some ways better than his father, William Lindsay White attained a popular national byline of his own, through much persistence and some luck. Then, returning to Emporia, Kansas, in middle age, Bill White was to resolve, in his own way, many of the differences between his Kansas hometown and the sophisticated East Coast where he made his reputation.".
