Excerpt from The Age of Cleveland: Compiled Largely From Contemporary Journals and Other Original Sources and Edited for the Benefit of Posterity
Moreover, the authorities which such an historian finds at hand are not always of the highest order. In spite of that optimistic view of the survival of the fittest it is un' fortunately true that society is occasionally very indifferent to its contemporary litera ture and Ofttimes injudicious in its preserva tion, not infrequently permitting that to be lost which would be of incalculable value to the historian of the future. It is scarcely possible to overestimate the loss which the literature of Greek social, political, and lit crary life suffered in the destruction of the plays onathon. Many perplexing phases of the influence of the Sophists in politics would be capable of explanation, the final development of dramatic art more easily traced, and additional light thrown on sev.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the political and social landscape of the United States during the latter part of the 19th century, focusing particularly on the presidency of Grover Cleveland. The author provides valuable insights into the key issues of the time, including the debate surrounding civil rights, the ongoing tension between the North and the South, and the rise of new political parties. The author argues that many of the problems facing the nation during this period stemmed from a fundamental misunderstanding of the true nature of the Civil War and its aftermath. By examining the political rhetoric and social commentary of the time, the author demonstrates how this misunderstanding led to policies that were both ineffective and counterproductive. Ultimately, this book provides a nuanced and thought-provoking examination of a pivotal era in American history. Through its careful analysis of primary sources and its insightful commentary, this book sheds new light on the complex challenges and enduring legacies of the late 19th century.
