О книге

George William Curtis was a writer and public speaker. He was editor of Harper's Weekly and one of the founders of the American Republican party, and served Ulysses S.

This anthology of essays is the first of a three volume work, showing his broad knowledge and interest. - Summary by Lynne Thompson
