About this book
Woodrow Wilson gathered eight essays on literature and American history in this volume, dedicated to his friend Stockton Axson. Most had first appeared in the Atlantic Monthly, the Century Magazine and the Forum; only the essay on Burke was new to print. The title essay takes up the phrase "mere literature" as a sneer from a scientific age that wants literature taught by the methods of science. Others include The Course of American History and A Calendar of Great Americans.
