Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Romance of Labor, Scenes From Good Novels Depicting, Joy in Work One of us is a woman perforce set aside, and looking with eyes of sympathetic envy at the joyous laborers of the world. The other has seen somewhat of many industries and in recent years has had the great pleasure of living close to many books. To both of us it has seemed that many well-intentioned books, laboriously setting forth outlines of world industries, do not give, especially to young readers, adequate impressions of those industries. Young people are to-day more earnestly than ever before seeking for light to guide them to the places in the workshops of the world for which they are best fitted. Surely some of that light can be found in descriptions of those workshops written by writers of insight and imagination, like our novelists. Hence this book. We have tried to gather from writings of our novelists pages which give, not the mere skeletons of the occupations of men but their very souls. In the hands of these novelists many occupations seem as definitely to live as do the men who follow them, and even to have souls, which, like the souls of the men themselves, are touched with romance.
