Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Chautauqua Movement This book has been prepared in the midst of arduous official labors, and nothing but the writer´s interest in the cause it represents could have induces him to attempt the task now completed. The author has of necessity made use of some material already published in "The Chautauquan," and presented in lectures and addresses in all parts of the country. To such reproductions much new matter has been added; and it is hoped that the book will give to many persons who know little or nothing about Chautauqua, and to those who may have been prejudiced against it, the true view of its aims and plans, and thus secure to the cause new and firm friends, and increase its power for good. It is the author´s purpose (or at least his hope), at some future time to publish a volume of "Chautauqua Memorials," with detailed programmes of what was clone at every Assembly, and with the memoranda of things proposed from time to time, never yet accomplished. Such a compilation will make a souvenir for Chautauquans. Concerning the author´s personal relations to the beginning and to the development of the Chautauqua enterprise, he has said but little in this volume content and grateful to have been permitted, by a gracious Providence, to engage in the good cause with the worthy workers who have helped to found and to build it up. Some kind words on this subject by Mr. Miller, in his Introduction, the author has taken the liberty to suppress. The book is now committed to the "hosts of Chautauqua" and to "the outside world," in the humble hope that it may help to advance the noble cause which aims to lift and broaden and in manifold ways to bless humanity.
