Publisher's Synopsis
Workers and Idlers is a book written by Merritt H. Dement in 1883. The book explores the differences between two types of people in society: workers and idlers. Dement argues that workers are the backbone of society, contributing to its progress and prosperity through their hard work and dedication. On the other hand, idlers are seen as a drain on society, living off the labor of others and contributing nothing to the greater good.Throughout the book, Dement provides examples of workers and idlers from different walks of life, including farmers, businessmen, and politicians. He also discusses the impact of idleness on society, from the rise of crime and poverty to the decline of morals and values.Ultimately, Workers and Idlers is a call to action for individuals to take responsibility for their own lives and contribute to the greater good of society. It is a timeless message that still resonates today, reminding us of the importance of hard work, dedication, and responsibility in building a better world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
