Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Colonial Echo
It is natural to think that a man owning a business of such magnitude would have no time to consider other things. But this is very di?'ercnt with Dr. Batcheller. He is an earnest student of American history, a lover of good hooks in general, and an artist of rare taste and discrimination. His collection of antique specimens, and the thousands of books which he has amassed, have given him the national reputation of a cultured man and a liberal educator. Beside these things, which seem to be enough to demand all the time of an average man. He is an active member of the American Institute of Civics, the American Asiatic Association, the Order of Founders and Patriots of America. And of the Sons of the American Revolution-the New York Chamber of Commerce, and is an a'uthor of some note.
