About this book
The Brick Moon, and Other Stories is by Edward Everett Hale. The text says the moon, though made hollow, must take twelve million brick, and that the brick alone will cost sixty thousand dollars. The scheme of the Brick Moon hung, an airy vision, for seventeen years.
A speaker says that the newspapers and the Committee on Retrenchment, who are all new men, have got hold of it, and that some of them really think that papa has stolen the money. The text says that a polling-booth was arranged as a convenient place for the reading of the evening newspapers and for conference on their mutual affairs. The text says that some men were unmarried and did not much know where was the home in which the governor requested them to spend their Thanksgiving.
