Lay Morals is a collection of essays written by the renowned Scottish author, Robert Louis Stevenson. First published in 1889, the book contains a series of thought-provoking pieces that explore various aspects of morality, ethics, and human behavior. The essays cover a wide range of topics, including the nature of good and evil, the importance of honesty and integrity, the role of religion in society, and the relationship between art and morality. Stevenson's writing style is clear, concise, and engaging, making the book accessible to readers of all levels. He draws on his own experiences and observations to offer insightful commentary on the human condition, and his wit and humor add a touch of levity to even the most serious topics. Overall, Lay Morals is a timeless work of moral philosophy that offers valuable insights into the nature of human behavior and the importance of living a virtuous life. It is a must-read for anyone interested in ethics, morality, and the human condition.It is not for nothing, either, that the umbrella has become the very foremost badge of modern civilisation--the Urim and Thummim of respectability. Its pregnant symbolism has taken its rise in the most natural manner. Consider, for a moment, when umbrellas were first introduced into this country, what manner of men would use them, and what class would adhere to the useless but ornamental cane.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
