Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Adventures of Polk Wells (Charles Knox Polk Wells): The Notorious Outlaw Sentiment moulds public opinion. The expressions of but a single man may change a whole epoch of history. The records of the world itself, which are known to us as history, are but the lives and acts of its citizenship. Each individual makes his or her part of that record, whether knowingly or unknowingly. It has been truthfully said that "it takes all kind of people to make a world." It likewise takes all kinds of lives to make up her history. History is seen through many eyes, and the records of her various lives, whether good or bad, must in the aggregate form a true and impartial history of the nation´s life. What some men would discard from record, others would find most important to impress the public mind. It is with this feeling that this book, The Life And Adventures Of Charles Knox Polk Wells, better known to the public as "Polk Wells," is made a matter of permanent record. We do not present it to you for your reading and consideration, as an example of perfect life or an exemplary one, far from it. His exciting career of lawlessness, his super daring deeds, has long since fixed his name on frontier record as one full of pathetic hatred and his very name as one with which to coerce children into good behavior. However, there are thousands of his friends, too, who have found much in his life to admire, for even his enemies freely admit he had a large, warm and kindly heart; that he never once took a penny from a poor person, and was always ready to bestow his last one upon them.
