Author: Rhodes, Harrison,
Title: American Towns and People.
Description: NY, Robert McBridge & Co., 1920. VG. Is the present raising of children the creation of a Frankenstein? Children were once thought well of chiefly. because they would grow up to be mend and women; nowadays men and women are valued mostly because they were once children. Growing up is only falling from a once proud estate. Children come to us trailing clouds of glory and gifted too. To adepts of the new cult a child at the breakfast-table consuming its cereal nourishment sits oracularly like the Delphic priestess. Young foreign gentlemen are generally available and often cozy at tea time but there are never foreigners enough and tea-drinking has been successfully resisted by almost every native son. People even arrive on time for the opera sometimes. Navy blue binding, gilt lettering. Old time gilt card enclosed.
