Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Wage Earner: And His Problems No one can doubt but that the reading habit is firmly established among the American people. We read and we read - at home, on the street, in the street car, on the train, in places of work; we read as we eat, as we talk, as we walk, as we wait. Daily we consume tons and tons of printed matter. This reading habit of ours is of vital significance and effect in determining what we are and what we would be. When first we enter the world of books by the road of the a, b, c´s, we come into a wider and greater world of realities and a realm of imagery. Beginning in childhood with the fairy-land and the make-believe, we may go further and further into the world of books and thought, and may there find and know men and women - all that they were or dreamed, or strove and agonized to be. In that world mind calls unto mind across all ages, the great and noble of all times speak simply and clearly to anyone who will hear, truths of life and work, truths born of experience and wisdom; and yet do all Americans realize that this reading habit is the talisman that admits them to communion and companionship with the immortals? Or is the talisman prostituted to less worthy purposes? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
