Legion: Or Feigned Excuses is a book written by an anonymous author and published in 1856. The book is a collection of satirical essays that criticize the excuses people make for their actions or lack of action. The essays cover a wide range of topics, from politics and religion to social norms and personal behavior. The title of the book refers to the biblical story of Legion, in which a man possessed by many demons uses the excuse of his possession to avoid responsibility for his actions. The author uses this story as a metaphor for the many excuses people make to avoid taking responsibility for their own lives. The book is written in a witty and sarcastic style, and the author's observations are often cutting and incisive. Overall, Legion: Or Feigned Excuses is a thought-provoking and entertaining read that challenges readers to examine their own excuses and take responsibility for their actions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
