Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Homespun Odds and Ends
Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! Every tyro tries his hand at essay writing. To prevent being classified as an off-color, I deliver unto you these sketches, several of which have been in type before.
Conceding the pages which follow cover soil already tilled, by gentlemen of scholas tic attainments and recognized literary abil ity, and that the subscriber can not point to a single fresh idea - hot from the furnace fire of a genius - yet, I respectfully submit them, trusting you may find a link here and there in the chain binding the auld lang syne to the throbbing realities of today, the brighter for my furbishing.
