Excerpt from University Library of Autobiography: Including All the Great Autobiographies and the Autobiographical Data Left by the World's Famous Men and Women
Autobiography is What biography ought to be. It is the lives of men written not by hearsay, but by exact personal knowledge. Naturally autobiography has always ranked among the most interesting forms of reading. It might also be ranked as the most instructive, the most practically useful; because of its value as psychology. In the careful perusal of a man's own account of his own life, his estimate of his own character, aims and passions, we are reaching the nearest we ever can to the first hand study of human nature. If, as has been Often said, history is philosophy taught by example, we might with equal truth declare autobiography to be psychol ogy taught by example.
