About This Item
Text is clean and unmarked. Binding is bright with wear around the outer edges. Small portion of the bottom spine binding is missing. "I have written for all classes, in the conviction that the intellectual life is really within the reach of everyone one who earnestly desires it. The highest culture can never be within the reach of those who cannot give the years of labor which it costs: and if we cultivate ourselves to shine in the eyes of others, to become famous in literature or science, then of course we must give many more hours of labor than can be spared from a life of practical industry." pp. xii-xiii.
