""Equality"" is a non-fiction book written by Charles Dudley Warner, originally published in 1897. The book discusses the concept of equality in society and how it has evolved over time. Warner explores the history of equality, from ancient civilizations to modern times, and examines how different societies have approached the issue of equality. He also discusses the challenges and obstacles that have arisen in the pursuit of equality, including discrimination and prejudice. Warner argues that while progress has been made, there is still much work to be done to achieve true equality. The book is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of one of the most important issues facing society today.The well-known theory upon which Rousseau's superstructure rests is that society is the result of a compact, a partnership between men. They have not made an agreement to submit their individual sovereignty to some superior power, but they have made a covenant of brotherhood. It is a contract of association. Men were, and ought to be, equal cooperators, not only in politics, but in industries and all the affairs of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

In the early 1870s, Mark Twain, along with his friend and neighbor Charles Dudley Warner -- who had chided their wives for the low quality novels they were reading -- were challenged by them to write something better. Twain, who would eventually attain to worldwide fame for his novels "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" had never before written a novel; the collaboration here exposed political corruption of the day and gave the era an enduring name, that of this novel: The Gilded Age. The Gilded Age examines the greed and corruption rampant in America at that time, from wild speculations by frontier megalomaniacs to shady intrigues by Washington politicians, even including the murder of a bigamist by a sexy lobbyist whom he had earlier led astray and betrayed, and relates how many women of the time wanted to change genders. Almost twenty years later, Twain (by himself, this time) wrote a sequel, "The American Claimant" which is possibly his most wildly inventive and wacky novel of all, and incorporates one-armed cowboys, mad scientists, and armies of zombies mobilized to provide cheap labor to speculators. These two novels are combined here in one volume.

MY DEAR MR. FIELDS, -I did promise to write an Introduction to these charming papers but an Introduction, -what is it?-a sort of pilaster, put upon the face of a building for looks' sake, and usually flat, -very flat. Sometimes it may be called a caryatid, which is, as I understand it, a cruel device of architecture, representing a man or a woman, obliged to hold up upon his or her head or shoulders a structure which they did not build, and which could stand just as well without as with them. But an Introduction is more apt to be a pillar, such as one may see in Baalbec, standing up in the air all alone, with nothing on it, and with nothing for it to do. But an Introductory Letter is different. There is in that no formality, no assumption of function, no awkward propriety or dignity to be sustained. A letter at the opening of a book may be only a footpath, leading the curious to a favorable point of observation, and then leaving them to wander as they will. Sluggards have been sent to the ant for wisdom; but writers might better be sent to the spider, not because he works all night, and watches all day, but because he works unconsciously. He dare not even bring his work before his own eyes, but keeps it behind him, as if too much knowledge of what one is doing would spoil the delicacy and modesty of one's work

(September 12, 1829 - October 20, 1900) was an American essayist, novelist, and friend of Mark Twain, with whom he co-authored the novel The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today.Warner was born of Puritan descent in Plainfield, Massachusetts. From the ages of six to fourteen he lived in Charlemont, Massachusetts, the scene of the experiences pictured in his study of childhood, Being a Boy (1877). He then moved to Cazenovia, New York, and in 1851 graduated from Hamilton College, Clinton, NY. He worked with a surveying party in Missouri; studied law at the University of Pennsylvania; practiced in Chicago (1856-1860); was assistant editor (1860) and editor (1861-1867) of The Hartford Press, and after The Press was merged into The Hartford Courant, was co-editor with Joseph R Hawley; in 1884 he joined the editorial staff of Harper's Magazine, for which he conducted The Editor's Drawer until 1892, when he took charge of The Editor's Study. He died in Hartford on October 20, 1900, and was interred at Cedar Hill Cemetery, with Mark Twain as a pall bearer and Joseph Twichell officiating. Warner traveled widely, lectured frequently, and was actively interested in prison reform, city park supervision, and other movements for the public good. He was the first president of the National Institute of Arts and Letters, and, at the time of his death, was president of the American Social Science Association. He first attracted attention by the reflective sketches entitled My Summer in a Garden (1870; first published in The Hartford Courant), popular for their abounding and refined humour and mellow personal charm, their wholesome love of outdoor things, their suggestive comment on life and affairs, and their delicately finished style, qualities that suggest the work of Washington Irving.

The sailors call it the nastiest bit of water in the world. All travelers anathematize it. I have now crossed it three times in different places, by long routes and short ones, and have always found it as comfortable as any sailing anywhere, sailing being one of the most tedious and disagreeable inventions of a fallen race.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
