Excerpt from Songs of the WaysideMY apology for thrusting this volume upon the library shelves is the importunity of my friends, mainly, who have wished me to put into some permanent form the fugitives of forty years, but there is also an element of myself in the matter, for I have a conscience in this thing also. Ours is yet a young country. When the men of the pioneer days built their log huts they were preparing the way for massive buildings of steel and concrete. The huts may vanish, but the builders live on in the life of the country. So every fragment of a literary sort is a helper in creating a worthy, sub stantial and national literature.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
