| Summary |
Gelett Burgess once wrote: "the essay is the most compromising form of literature possible." This 1902 volume is a collection of Gelett Burgess's best essays on the not-so-commonplace. The essays expose Burgess for what he was; a brilliant American humorist and a darn good writer. Burgess covers everything from living alone to the science of flattery. While the essays verge on the autobiographical, they are undiminished in their freshness of ideas and their originality. |
