Description
1912 1st ed Hubbard American Bible Thomas Jefferson Lincoln Franklin Roycroft
Alice Hubbard’s ‘American Bible’ is not a Bible in the traditional sense and has only slight resemblances to the actual Holy Scriptures at all. According to the introduction of this undated first edition, this work
“is fitted to the needs of men and women, and the hope is that it will help them to live… This bible must teach the philosophy of business and also show how it benefits man… It will teach us that to eat more than the body uses brings disease and then death… It will teach the practical application of the Golden Rule… For these reasons, we have selected practical truth concerning everyday life, from the writings of eight Americans.”
Hubbard incorporated works that portrayed human and social equality, life, liberty and happiness, and self-preservation. The writings that are featured in this work come from well-known and highly esteemed American figures including
Benjamin Franklin
Thomas Jefferson
Thomas Paine
Abraham Lincoln
Walt Whitman
Robert Ingersoll
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Elbert Hubbard
