About this ebook
Published in 1885, this collection of Arnold’s public addresses given during his 1883-84 American tour consists of "Numbers: or the Majority and the Remnant," "Literature and Science," and "Emerson," in which he judges Emerson as a mediocre poet and philosopher but nevertheless places him among the "most distinctly and honourably American of your writers."
