Customer Reviews

A great little book of quotes taken from numerous sources.

As I have mentioned numerous times in the past, I love quote books of all kinds. This little book of quotes, compiled by Ann Russell Wigton, was published in 1970 but in spite of its age, it is still a great read. Various quotes are included from numerous sources such as Albert Einstein, Henry David Thoreau, Will Rogers, O. Henry, Theodore Roosevelt, Clarence Darrow, H. L. Mencken, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr, Henry Ford, Ralph Waldo Emerson and numerous other well-known Americans. In conclusion, though this book is not a comprehensive quote book; nevertheless, it is a book you will enjoy reading. Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J.
