About the author
Little biographical information about this author could be confirmed from the sources available during this search. What is clear is that James E. Pickering is credited as the author of The Call of the Mountains, and Other Poems, a public-domain poetry collection that is available through Project Gutenberg.
The collection is presented as early-20th-century poetry and centers on nature, contemplation, memory, and the passage of time. Based on the surviving record for this book, Pickering appears to be known today mainly through this volume rather than through a widely documented public literary biography.
Because reliable biographical sources were scarce, it is best to treat him as a lightly documented poet whose work has outlasted the details of his life.
