Recreation, Vol. 6 June 1897 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Recreation, Vol. 6: June 1897 An analysis of the questions shows that they deal with a very large number of different points. That is, in answering fifty questions you investigate fifty subjects and touch upon hundreds of others. History and literature, the Bible and Homer, travel, machinery and law, operas and music, Shakspere and Scott, Paris and Boston, art and architecture, earthquakes and the heavens, cards and the stage, Napoleon and the North American Indians, the Amazon and the Mississippi, questions of home and of business - all these and a multitude of others are included. Thus, in addition to the pleasure and the mental training, comes the new knowledge that Will broaden you as Greeley said it broadened Lincoln. On request, we will forward you sample questions and full particulars of the competition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
