Discover America's Forgotten Sage

Elbert Hubbard (1856-1915) was a philosopher, entrepreneur, and leader of the Arts & Crafts movement in America. One of the most widely read authors of his day, his work fell into obscurity in the decades after he perished in the sinking of the Lusitania at the outset of World War I.

This is a new anthology of Elbert Hubbard's most insightful, inspiring, and provocative writings, assembled and introduced by Sam Torode. It includes Hubbard's revolutionary ideas on women's equality, free-thought in religion, overhauling education, opposing the war machine, and much, much more.

Hubbard could have been the world's first blogger and Tweeter -- these 120 short essays, plus many witty aphorisms, reveal a writer far ahead of his time.

"Elbert Hubbard was one of the most interesting American characters of his time. He had a rare faculty of expression and he used it to serve the cause of common sense in this country. Hubbard demonstrated the power of an idea when conceived by an independent mind and supported by intelligent industry. His Roycroft Shop became a place of pilgrimage to men and women who were interested in handicrafts and who dreamed of a greater idealization of common life. I visited him at East Aurora and was a reader of his publications from the start. Elbert Hubbard deserves a permanent place in our libraries." -- Henry Ford
