- In The Song of the Lark, Dr. Archie "enjoyed the Waverley Novels," Scott's series of 32 historical tales. In "Before Breakfast," Henry Grenfill likes to read something "human--the old fellows: Scott and Dickens and Fielding." The Rosens, in "Old Mrs. Harris," own a set of the Waverley novels in German.
