From the foreword: "It is the purpose of this book to reveal as far as possible the character of William Holmes McGuffey as a distinguished humanitarian, heedless of monetary or mercenary possibilities, centered only in services which he could render his day and generation through the appeal of his pen and his voice and his extraordinary literary sense. We have wished to pay tribute to the influence of The Mcguffey Readers in the far- flung frontier in the march of western development, even beyond the Rockies.".
