Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Story of My Life; Or: More Than a Half Century as I Have Lilved It and Seen It Lived
If I have accomplished anything in any sphere of human endeavor, I claim no special credit for it; I have simply tried to do my duty, though I am conscious of having fallen far short of my ideals.
Hence I have taken up more than half a century of life as I have lived it, and as I have seen it lived in others, and woven the result into the warp and woof of this volume.
It is a simple story, taken at a high temperature out of the furnace of a very intense experience.
