Excerpt from My Life's Battles
Figures which tell us of the circulation of books Show that works of Fiction are always at the top of the list. Libraries are crammed with them, yet there are many volumes which deal plainly with the daily lives of ordinary people not less enthralling than an exciting novel.
The life incidents described in this book Show that truth is quite as strange as fiction when truth covers the uninterrupted activities of a robust and fearless agi tator, impelled to his task by the highest and most unselfish motives.
A Sketch of Will Thorne is a picture of adventure, hardships, romance and grim determination to leave the world a little better than he found it. These pages exhibit the spirit of the Rebel, and reveal a little of the great honesty, caution and practical wisdom which Thorne's intimate friends have known him always to possess in a very high degree.
