'Wild to an Easterner'
"{Added to the reasons for moving} is the charm of New Canaan (Conn.), a New England village at the end of a single track railroad with almost wild country in three directions, i.e., wild to an Easterner. An ideal place for bringing up children in the way they should go, girls anyhow.''
The late great Scribner's book editor (including of Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway) Max Perkins on moving to New Canaan, as quoted in A. Scott Berg's 1978 biography Max Perkins, Editor of Genius (1978).
Editor's note: This is a rather romantic, rustic description of a rich New York City suburb.
