Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rogue´s March Shams and Verities in History and Biography: Or Do You Know, a Great Man When You See Him, and if So, by What Signs? Wast thou fain, poor father, To hovel thee with swine and rogues forlorn In short and musty straw? What is this book, "The Rogue´s March," about? We can tell you in a few words. Nay, make no grievous error: what we have heretofore lived by, we can live by no longer, historically speaking. We built for ourselves a beautiful Garden of Lies and called it our Garden of Eden. And we read and believed our pig-trough history, wherein we were representing ourselves as an angel with a revolver in our hand; and we learned to look on it as something good, to go by, and to live by... Men talk of writing history or biography as tho this were some profound record attainable only thru yearlong researches by students all but going blind in dust-laden National archives.
