Excerpt from The Vision of EstherAlthough The Vision of Nimrod and The Vision of Esther are oriental in scene and actors, they aim at problems of the west to-day. Polygamy sits in the heart of the United States. The status of woman in Europe and America is unsettled. Hebrews are still treated with gross or refined injustice. The American judiciary is corrupt. The priest still aims at material conquests. Dedicated to Darwin, the great student of nature with out us, and to Emerson, the believer in the ideal and supernatural within, the second volume proceeds on the assumption of the first, that always the study of nature coexisted beside the study of God and never did the one really invalidate the other. Only it needs to-day more width of mind to bridge the gap made inevitably by the progress of ideas in separate directions.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
