Opis

Excerpt from The West: Its Commerce and Navigation The dignity and usefulness of Commerce, exemplified in the history of the Western States. In estimating the relative standing and influence of the different classes of our population, there are, I think, two very grave mistakes usually committed: one of which assigns the highest place in the scale of merit to manual labor, while the other disdains, as low and coarse, all that partakes of physical exertion; - by the one class, the farmer, the laborer, and the mechanic, are lauded as wielding the creative power by which all the elements of wealth are brought into existence, by the other the members of the learned professions are revered as the depositories of all knowledge, the makers and arbiters of public opinion; and these respective classes have been courted and flattered, by those who have sought to rise upon the breath of popular favor. The truth lies, I suppose, between these extremes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
