Good. <p>The American novelist Robert Welch Herrick 1863-1938 was part of a newly emerging generation of American realists who addressed the turbulence and turmoil of industrialized society. Praised by William James Herrick's work differed from Upton Sinclair's muckraking style to achieve its power from the perspective of melancholic fatalism. Appointed Secretary to the United States Virgin Islands in 1935 he found himself in the position of acting-Governor of the Islands when a political scandal forced Governor Paul Martin Pearson and his Lieutenant Governor to appear before the Senate. Pearson was forced to resign and as his successor Lieutenant Governor Lawrence William Cramer was forced to remain in Washington until hearings were concluded Herrick found himself presiding over the current legislative sessions.
