Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Young Man's Questions
The character of this little book is clearly enough indicated by its title and the table of contents. Very probably the ideals which it maintains will be distasteful to some. They will say that it cramps pleasure and narrows life. This is a mistake. This little book is written in the interests of freedom and the largest life. Its counsel to young men is to stand fast in the liberty with which Christ has made men free, and to refuse enslavement under any yoke of bondage. Its appeal to them is the appeal of Paul to Timothy: No soldier on service entangleth himself in the affairs of this life; that he may please Him who en rolled him as a soldier. And if also a man contend in the games he is not crowned except he have contended lawfully. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
