Book Description

Book Description
Excerpt from Thomas Wentworth Higginson To old Salem, the home of Francis Higginson, Colonel Higginson re turns more than once in his books. The essay on Old Salem Sea - Cap tains is one of the best in the volume, Travellers and Outlaws, which is made up of studies of some of those unfamiliar and curious historical episodes and characters with which Colonel Higginson delights to deal.

Excerpt from Letters and Journals of Thomas Wentworth Higginson, 1846-1906 It is a bewildering and fascinating thing to read old letters; they are so full of vitality that one can scarcely bear it. I feel this strangely in turning over my army papers; they seem to belong to some one twin-born with me, but who led a wholly different life from me, with whom I have now no communion save' in the dim throbbing of the same nerves which that touches.
