The book Lewis G. Janes: Philosopher, Patriot, Lover Of Man by J.H. West is a comprehensive biography of Lewis G. Janes, a prominent figure in the 19th century American intellectual and social reform movements. The book explores Janes' life, from his childhood in rural New York to his education at Harvard University and his subsequent career as a philosopher, writer, and social activist.Janes was a key figure in the Transcendentalist movement, and the book delves into his philosophical beliefs and his contributions to the movement. It also explores Janes' involvement in the abolitionist movement, his work as an educator, and his advocacy for women's rights.The author provides a detailed account of Janes' personal life, including his marriage to Abby May, the sister of Louisa May Alcott, and his close relationships with other prominent figures of the time, such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau.Overall, Lewis G. Janes: Philosopher, Patriot, Lover Of Man is a fascinating look at the life and work of a largely overlooked figure in American history, and sheds light on the intellectual and social movements that shaped the country during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
