Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Anecdotes for Boys: Entertaining Narratives and Anecdotes, Illustrative of Principles and Character I have noticed that young people are fond of reading anecdotes, narrative, parables, &c. This taste of theirs sometimes leads them to devour all the trash that comes in their way, with no other object than mere amusement. But, if properly guarded, it may be the means of conveying truth to their minds in a form not only more attractive, but more readily understood. The design of this book is, to supply reading of this kind, which shall be not only entertaining but instructive. I never write for the amusement of the reader merely. But I am glad if he is entertained at the same time that he is instructed. This book is not a mere compilation of stories. Its main object is to illustrate truth and character.
