Excerpt from Memories and MilestonesLife is a unity in spite of the lightning changes of scene that flash across its vistas, and shock us with an awe inspiring sense of dislocation. Behind all there is a steady, moving power; and the scenes are related. The whole of any life, - the whole of any epoch, - is past and gone in a moment; and, behold, it then appears to be stamped all over with a kind of identity: it is unmistakably one thing. But we cannot peep behind this curtain of the figure and find out what all our present thoughts signify. Therefore anyone who publishes portraits and memories, or who reprints little addresses upon current history, will do well to refrain from any parade of philosophy in a preface. One of the deepest impulses in man is the impulse to record, - to scratch a drawing on a tusk or keep a diary, to collect sagas and heap cairns. This instinct as to the enduring value of the past is, one might say, the very basis of civilization.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Terrible Production, Good Book By 20011 The publisher chose to OCR the book, which would have been OK had anyone bothered to check it. Nobody did, and there are artifacts such as bad line breaks (quotation marks beginning or ending a line), amusing and annoying misprints--0 B K for Phi Beta Kappa, "Board o$ Visitors", Pa-gliacci', and so on--oddly narrow lines where I suppose a picture must have been, captions included though the photos are gone, "Section 1" through "Section n" rather than the essay titles heading chapters, and no doubt other problems I've forgotten. I'm no expert on copyright, but I don't see why someone shouldn't simply reproduce the page images. That would give a handsomer and more accurate book.Though I dislike the production, I'm glad to have read the essays. The best of them are collected in _Unbought Mind_ (which Illinois has allowed to go out of print), but the essays on President Eliot and Charles Eliot Norton among others were new to me.
