Über den Autor
Edward Everett Hale (1822 - 1909) was an American author, historian and Unitarian minister. Combining a forceful personality, organizing genius and liberal practical theology, Hale was active in raising the tone of American life for half a century. He had a deep interest in the anti-slavery movement (especially in Kansas), as well as popular education (involving himself especially with the Chautauqua adult-education movement) and the working-man's home.
