American Public Opinion (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from American Public Opinion

Under the general title of American Public Opinion, it is ventured to present a number of essays which have been written in an effort to interpret American opinion upon certain large and more or less international questions. Seven out of the fourteen chapters have appeared in the Fortnightly Review of London during the past year; five in the Century Magazine of New York, and the last two are here presented for the first time. To the publishers of the Fortnightly Review, and to the publishers of the Century Magazine, grateful acknowledgment is given for the right of reproduction. The book itself is not intended as a thorough or connected study of the psychology of the American mind as it relates to public affairs, but that it may assist the reader to a more intimate and friendly understanding of the American point of view is the hope of the author.
