First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Light wear but with a previous owner's name on the cover; no interior markings. Illustrated with photographs and maps. There is a quote from George Santayana, the American philosopher, that has a couple of variations: Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it; and - those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. So true. And he also said, "A country without a memory is a country of madmen," while the German philosopher Georg Hegel said, "We learn from history that we never learn anything from history." These Current History magazines tend to prove those statements. And a look through the titles suggests the problems and issues of 1925 weren't much different than the ones we have now. This issue contains far too many articles to list them all but some of the highlights are: Is Prohibition a Success After Five Years? - Yes by Wayne B. Wheeler; No by Wm. Cabell Bruce; President Coolidge's Efficiency by George W. Hinman Jr; Commerce Seeking to Conquer the Air by Edward P. Warner; California's Seventy-Five Years of Statehood by Rockwell D. Hunt; Battle Against Child Labor in China by Precival Finch; Teaching War Strategy to Our Future Generals by Frank U. Quillin; The Alarming Increase in Divorce by Benjamin P. Chass; and many many more. Size: 8vo. Book.
