A Message to Garcia and Selected Essays of Elbert Hubbard

By Elbert Hubbard

Book Overview

This literary trifle, "A Message to Garcia," was written one evening after supper, in a single hour. It was on the Twenty-second of February, Eighteen Hundred Ninety-nine, Washington's Birthday, and we were just going to press with the March "Philistine." The thing leaped hot from my heart, written after a trying day, when I had been endeavoring to train some rather delinquent villagers to abjure the comatose state and get radioactive. The immediate suggestion, though, came from a little argument over the teacups, when my boy Bert suggested that Rowan was the real hero of the Cuban War. Rowan had gone alone and done the thing-carried the message to Garcia. It came to me like a flash Yes, the boy is right, the hero is the man who does his work-who carries the message to Garcia. - Taken from "A Message To Garcia" written by Elbert Hubbard. This edition also contains selected writings of Elbert Hubbard on Morality, Success and more
