Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mr. Milo Bush, and Other Worthies Their Recollections
But Goldstein has not complained, and he has stuck to trade. Personally he is a man who would attract attention anywhere, solely for the reason that he would not de serve it. He is somewhat below the average height, with stooped shoulders, rather more than his share of nose, and with a black, bushy, tangled beard, a woven-wire beard, or, to enlarge the figure, a jungle-like beard, a trackless, unexplored, unknown beard, which even the dogs, despite all their efforts, have never penetrated. But though this description does not set Goldstein forth in glowing colors, it must not be thought that there is anything repulsive about him. Far from it; he has an insinuating way and much personal magnetism. Nor is he any fool; on the contrary, he hath a pretty wit, though one tinctured a little by his trade instincts, as shall appear.
