Edward Payson Roe (1838-1888) was an American author, best known for his works of fiction that melded a keen observation of nature with a narrative style that was often didactic but resonant with the pastoral and domestic sensibilities of his time. Roe's vocation started in the pastoral realm; he served as a chaplain during the American Civil War, a period that profoundly influenced much of his later writing. He melded his naturalistic observations with storytelling, a blend that is prominently featured in his work 'Nature's Serial Story' (1871). In 'Nature's Serial Story', he transposed his infatuation with the natural world into a novel that encompasses elements of romance and adventure, entwining human emotions and character development with the life cycles of nature. Roe's literary style is characterized by his Christian faith and moral messages, attributes that garnered him immense popularity during his lifetime. Though his acclaim has waned since his passing, Roe's contribution to American literature in the late 19th century provides a window into the cultural and environmental contexts of the period. His narratives often emphasize redemption and perseverance, reflective of his own life's dedication to literature and spiritual belief. His other notable works include 'Barriers Burned Away' (1872), 'The Opening of a Chestnut Burr' (1874), and 'Without a Home' (1881), each of which continued to depict his passionate intertwining of human narratives with the intricate beauties of the natural world.
