Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Wisdom's Call
It is well that the South has had this lesson of her greatness coming out of the Civil War, for, stand ing midway of the world's civic forests, with the world's most stupendous sociological problem strapped to her back, hedged in with briers, brambles and darkness, her ears beset with the harsh tones of the vicious, the false tones of the demagogues and the half tones of the timid, the lesson is needed that she may have the faith in her powers necessary for the performance of the great task that is hers and the nation's. But there are other lessons of equal importance to be drawn from the outcome of this same war. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
