What Is Your Culture to Me?

This is an influential work by Charles Dudley Warner (1829 – 1900), an American essayist and novelist. Warner toured widely, lectured frequently, and was actively interested in prison reform, city park supervision, and other movements for the public good. Excerpt «Twenty-one years ago in this house I heard a voice calling me to ascend the platform, and there to stand and deliver. The voice was the voice of President North; the language was an excellent imitation of that used by Cicero and Julius Caesar.»
