Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Fight for the City The story of Mr. Jerome´s campaign as it is set down in the following pages is a story by an eye-witness, but by an eye-witness who had in the beginning no intention whatsoever of playing the chronicler. My own hasty notes of Mr. Jerome´s speeches have therefore been supplemented in some instances by the notes of private stenographers and of reporters; and many scenes still vivid in my memory - scenes in the streets, scenes in auditoriums, scenes at headquarters - have in the lapse of days lost the precision of dates and of details that in a chronicle is not to be dispensed with. Had the whole record been preserved with perfect accuracy, it would doubtless still have been unpublishable; there is no precedent for making public, after a few months´ interval, a record of the daily speech and action of contemporary men. Nevertheless, in the daily speech and action of the group of men of which Mr. Jerome was for some five weeks the centre, lay no small part of what was inspiriting and significant in his campaign. It was in great part a campaign of amateurs and an improvised campaign. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
