Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life, Here and There: Or Sketches of Society and Adventure at Far-Apart Times and Places So imperceptibly is one stage of life shaded into the next - so gradual and easy are the transitions, through the changes worked by experience and observation - that we refer back to what we "always said," and "always thought," as if we had always looked through the same eyes and judged by the same standards. Yet, if we could recal the Past, with the backward-waving wand of the magician, and could see, together, the two pictures - life as it seemed then, and life as it seems now - how startling, to any mind, would be the comparison! An author who has chronicled his impressions, and preserved pictures of society, as he saw it at earlier and later stages of observation, has almost this magical privilege. He can look again at the scenes which he has copied and treasured up, and judge, as few others can, with what different eyes men look around them at far-apart times and places.
