This Is A New Release Of The Original 1919 Edition.

1919. What is it to die, and to what does dying bring us? To the average man, the answer to these questions was more important than answers to all the gigantic questions that beset the minds of generals, statesmen and philosophers. To find this answer, would be perhaps to perform an inestimable service for the comforting and strengthening of many hearts. And where could this answer be more certainly found than in the utterances of the great and good ages past, and of some of the humble but very valiant who were living and dying greatly at this great moment? It was in this thought that the idea of this anthology was conceived.
