• Hook verified, interesting, length and date are okay. Article is short but over 1500 characters. I would like to see more about critical reception of the work since one of the sources says "it made his career", but DYK ready. Paraphrasing, neutrality okay, no POV issues. Image license is acceptable (one of the Times images with unrenewed copyright-before May 1936 cut off). Froggerlaura ^ribbit 05:19, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
