Bag om Quo Vaditis? A Call To The Old Moralities (1903)

Quo Vaditis? A Call To The Old Moralities is a book written by Bouck White and published in 1903. The title is a Latin phrase that translates to ""Where are you going?"" and is taken from a biblical story about Peter encountering Jesus on the road to Rome.

He also criticizes the excesses of capitalism and calls for a more equitable distribution of wealth.Overall, Quo Vaditis? A Call To The Old Moralities is a thought-provoking and timeless book that challenges readers to consider the importance of morality in their own lives and in society as a whole.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
