Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life Sketches, or Pleasant Reminiscences, of a Busy Career Spent Among All Classes and Conditions of People in the United States and Canada This series of Sketches appeared a few years Since in the N ewtown, L. I., Register, and at the re quest of many friends is now printed, with a few changes, in a separate volume. It reveals some note worthy incidents in the path of my experience on health, adventure, athletics, character and morals - in fact is largely a picture of my own life - one quite in formal, and sufficiently off-hand to give Nature health ful room without wounding her with malicious indiffer ence. The reader will see that in many places I lay special stress upon the curative properties of cold, pure, dry air; and I am obliged to do so because most people forget the worth' of this grandest of all tonics. And another thing the reader may see - I never failed to keep up my confidence in human nature. A man can never realize the full worth Of life till he does this. As a Spectator on this beautiful little planet, one arriving at my age has the prerogative of knowing something, and Should not be afraid to speak it. The shackles of creed or dogma have no place in my mental furniture. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
