Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Book About Boys ´A short and certain way to obtain the character of a reasonable and wise man,´ says Swift, ´is, whenever any one tells you his opinion, to comply with it.´ I fear that if judged by this rule I may seem to have taken a very roundabout way to gain credit among my contemporaries, for my opinions on many subjects are at issue with those of most people, and I take no pains to conceal the fact. In particular, I have formed an unusual estimate of the nature and value of Boys, the exposition of which is the subject of these pages. I have paid more attention to the advice of the above-mentioned author where he says, ´Positiveness is a good quality for preachers and orators, because he that would obtrude his thoughts and reasons upon a multitude will convince others the more as he appears convinced himself.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
