Excerpt from In Mizzoura: Play in Four ActsIn the spring of 1891 Mr. Nat Goodwin was one of the most popular and successful, as well as one of the most skillful, of American actors. He had played lively and slight farces almost exclusively, but having the ability for serious work as well, he was ambitious to try it. In a comedy by Brander Matthews and George H. Jessop, called A Gold Mine he had given one or two dramatic scenes most convincingly, and one sentimental soliloquy with a rose in exquisite tenderness. In person he is under the average height, and then, was slight, graceful, and with a face capable of conveying the subtlest shades of feeling. The forehead was ample, the eyes were large and blue, clear and steady. The nose was mildly Roman, the hair was the color of new hay. His voice was rich and modulated. These points are reported because they helped form the equipment of the star, who wanted a serious play in which he should be the hero. The order was with out other conditions, the play might be of any period and of any land.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
