Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from State Builders: An Illustrated Historical and Biographical Record of the State of New Hampshire at the Beginning of the Twentieth Century If "good wine needs no bush," so it may be said that a good book needs no preface. And yet, the somewhat unique plan and purpose of this volume merit a brief introductory. State Builders is not only a carefully prepared biography of New Hampshire men, but it presents the political, industrial and educational history of our State as well. Few works of this character have been prepared with greater care and discrimination than State Builders. Each chapter is the finished production of a writer especially competent and adapted to treat the particular subject assigned him, thereby giving to the work a character and authority decidedly unusual. Furthermore, the biographical features of the book form a convenient, authentic and exceedingly valuable collection of reference, and supplies a distinctive want in the personal history of the State. Acceptable as State Builders is at the present time, its value and usefulness are certain to increase with every year and form an important part of New Hampshire´s literary history. State Builders is wholly a New Hampshire biographical-historical undertaking conceived and completed by New Hampshire men, and dedicated to those sons of the State, living or dead, whose achievements have done so much to make the Granite State the sturdy and prosperous Commonwealth that she is. It is always pleasant to commend a book; but when a book, as in this instance, possesses positive merits of an enduring nature then commendation becomes a most agreeable duty.
