Excerpt from Pillory and Witness-BoxFearless books - books that fight - are rare in our day. They are rarest in our land. In America moral cowardice gnaws at the spinal nerve of the nation - as if to lower and annul even the animal courage of the American to a mere reflex action of unbridled ins stinct. This primitive strain in the American is still so strong, that our masses will always respond to the crudest emotional stimuli. Every demagogue and im: poster knows the formula for these stimuli - the ready spells whereby he may work upon the simple soul of these masses, rich or poor, educated or illiterate. So easy is the trick and its success so sure, that to gull, betray or stampede the public has become a system - almost a science.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
