当E.B. White荣获American Academy of Arts and Letters的散文与批评金奖（Gold Medal for Essays and Criticism）时，颁奖词中这样写道（此处节录）：“如果我们作为一个文明时代被铭记，我认为部分原因将归功于E.B. White。未来的历史学家会断定，一个完全缺乏这些特质的时代不可能诞生出如此优雅而克制的作家，而我们也将在他温和的光芒映照下生辉。在他那些看似随意的随笔所馈赠给我们的所有礼物中，最好的礼物就是他自己。他允许……

……叫《铁路》（The Railroad），描述了铁路公司和政府是如何联手搞垮美国客运铁路的。网上没有原文，但我找到了一篇讨论它的博客文章[1]。它也被收录在散文集《E.B.怀特散文选》（Essays of E.B. White）中，任何喜欢清晰明了文字的人我都强烈推荐阅读。这篇散文的要点是，铁路公司一步步恶化乘客体验，然后随着客流减少，他们以此为借口……

关于散文这种文体，我还没看到有人提到优秀的《E.B.怀特散文选》（Essays of E. B. White）[1]。没错，就是《风格的要素》里“斯特朗克和怀特”中的那个怀特。书中至今仍让我记忆犹新的两篇散文（都是在 1940 年代左右写的）：(1) 《浣熊树》（Coon Tree） (2) 《猪之死》（Death of a Pig）。这些……
On the essay form, I don't yet see a mention of the excellent Essays of E. B. White[1]. Yes, the same one from 'Strunk and White' of The Elements of Style. Two essays that I still vividly remember from the book (both were written around 1940s): (1) Coon Tree (2) Death of a Pig These…

……来自 Google 图书，我本来以为这本已经被扫描了，但似乎并没有：https://www.google.no/search?tbm=bks&hl=en&q=e+b+white+essay... 我还偶然看到了关于另一本散文集《E.B.怀特散文选》（Essays of E.B. White）的旧笔记——摘自他自己写的前言：“散文家是一个自我解放的人，支撑他的是一种小孩子般的信念，坚信自己思考的一切、发生在他身上的一切，都能引起大家的兴趣。他是一个……
…from Google books, I would think that has been scanned, but it appears not: https://www.google.no/search?tbm=bks&hl=en&q=e+b+white+essay... I also came across an old note on another essay collection, "Essays of E.B.
