Book Description
Excerpt from Who's Who in Pennsylvania: A Biographical Dictionary of Contemporaries The former edition met with wide and generous recognition, and the present one, endeavoring to present not only such new names of importance as have achieved distinction in the interim, but also to give more perfect accounts of those whose life-sketches have been retained from the First Edition, is believed to be a marked improvement over its predecessor, the original volume. The utility of what are known as Who's Who books, of which the Lon don Who's Who, now in its sixtieth year of successful annual publication, may be regarded as the progenitor, is now everywhere recognised, the Ger mans and French having entered the field for their respective countries. The application of the idea to the representation of the notables of a. Single State began with the publication of Who's Who in New York City and State, by L. R. Hamersly Co. (of which the Fourth Edition is now in preparation), followed by the issue from the same publishing house of Who's Who in Pennsylvania. The present edition is virtually a new book, such matter as has been retained from the former issue having been in almost every case rewritten, amplified or condensed as seemed to be most appropriate to the purpose of the publication, which is to furnish a complete, accurate and reliable biographical dictionary of contemporary Pennsylvanians.
