He directed epecial attention to the importance of finding two facts; remarking that it had been well observed that there were even more false facts than false theories in the world.

There was none, therefore, in which the gathering up of true facts could be more needed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
