Excerpt from Looking Within: The Misleading Tendencies of Looking Backward Made Manifest Inhaling the inspiring breath of the new life which invigorates the nation so lately struggling in the toils of a lingering death, and cheered by the resurrection of all industries from the grave in which they were being utterly buried, we hail the dawn of a new era of progress with unspeakable gladness. How it was possible for a people once so full of energy to become willing slaves, selling their royal birthright for a mess of pottage, is a mystery as yet unexplained. That such a people could endure bond age of mind and body for three generations is still more astonishing and inexplicable. The object of this work is to throw light upon this enigmatical problem, warn fellow-citizens of the danger that threatens them from the alluring delusion which, like an ignis fatuus, is leading them along the slippery path of ruin, and prevent any such catastrophe ever overtaking our beloved country in the future. Let the stern and hard facts speak for themselves as they are uttered by those who relate their own sad experiences in these pages. Let the truth cut its onward way, and all delusions and sophistries perish at its touch. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
