Excerpt from What Ben Beverly Saw at the Great ExpositionIf you will throw aside your cares and anxieties, smooth the wrinkles from your brow, and drive the shadows from your heart, I will accompany you to the great Centennial Exposition, at Philadelphia - not by rushing trains or crowded omnibuses, but, perusing these pages - in the quiet seclusion of your homes, by your firesides, in your moments of leisure, or hours of travel, in your parlor, study, or wherever you will. Perhaps you have already been there, then it shall be my pleasant privilege, to refresh your memo ries, and awaken to new life your enthusiasm, in reviewing the objects of beauty and interest you witnessed there, and also to compare notes with you. If you have not been, and cannot go, except in imagination with me, I will use my best endeavor to repair what you lose, by making your impres sions of it, as real and vivid as possible. This event is an epoch in our history, worthy of our careful notice. Bayard Taylor, who has witnessed all the great world's fairs, expresses the opinion, that taken as a whole, our Exposition surpasses all its predecessors.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
