Walter Hard was a lifelong Vermonter known for his poetry as well as quaint portrayals of rural New England life. Along with his wife and daughters, he founded the Johnny Appleseed bookstore in Manchester in 1930, which remained in business for nearly 50 years.
The books of Walter Hard present a likeness of a land and its people that deserves a place in the gallery of the best that has been done by the regionalists of the earth.
–Carl Sandburg
