""Equality"" is a non-fiction book written by Charles Dudley Warner, originally published in 1897. The book discusses the concept of equality in society and how it has evolved over time. Warner explores the history of equality, from ancient civilizations to modern times, and examines how different societies have approached the issue of equality. He also discusses the challenges and obstacles that have arisen in the pursuit of equality, including discrimination and prejudice. Warner argues that while progress has been made, there is still much work to be done to achieve true equality. The book is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of one of the most important issues facing society today.The well-known theory upon which Rousseau's superstructure rests is that society is the result of a compact, a partnership between men. They have not made an agreement to submit their individual sovereignty to some superior power, but they have made a covenant of brotherhood. It is a contract of association. Men were, and ought to be, equal cooperators, not only in politics, but in industries and all the affairs of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

One of the best things in the world to be is a boy; it requires no experience, though it needs some practice to be a good one. The disadvantage of the position is that it does not last long enough; it is soon over; just as you get used to being a boy, you have to be something else, with a good deal more work to do and not half so much fun. And yet every boy is anxious to be a man, and is very uneasy with the restrictions that are put upon him as a boy.

The fascination nineteenth-century travelers felt for Egypt would be difficult to overestimate. Drawn by notions taken from the Bible and tales of the timelessness of the pyramids and the lasting beauty of Egyptian architecture, many made their way to the ancient world's most famous oasis. From the eyes of a novelist, Warner illustrates the drama and romance of a voyage to the Middle East when it was still largely unknown. Particularly attracted to the Muslim life and practice in Egypt, and the monuments of the ancient empires, Warner takes the reader through Cairo, its bazaar and the surrounding desert. The journey down the Nile is narrated with a sense of discovery and wonder, including a description of the author's Christmas on the Nile. Thebes and Karnak are visited on the river trek down into Ethiopia and tropical Africa. Warner takes the time to discuss the history of the concepts such as life after death for the ancient Egyptians that he encountered on his travels. A reflective journey back down the great river concludes the travelogue and takes the author to the brink of his journey following the tracks of the Israelites on the exodus from Egypt.

In the early 1870s, Mark Twain, along with his friend and neighbor Charles Dudley Warner -- who had chided their wives for the low quality novels they were reading -- were challenged by them to write something better. Twain, who would eventually attain to worldwide fame for his novels "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" had never before written a novel; the collaboration here exposed political corruption of the day and gave the era an enduring name, that of this novel: The Gilded Age. The Gilded Age examines the greed and corruption rampant in America at that time, from wild speculations by frontier megalomaniacs to shady intrigues by Washington politicians, even including the murder of a bigamist by a sexy lobbyist whom he had earlier led astray and betrayed, and relates how many women of the time wanted to change genders. Almost twenty years later, Twain (by himself, this time) wrote a sequel, "The American Claimant" which is possibly his most wildly inventive and wacky novel of all, and incorporates one-armed cowboys, mad scientists, and armies of zombies mobilized to provide cheap labor to speculators. These two novels are combined here in one volume.

On a summer day, long gone among the summer days that come but to go, a lad of twelve years was idly and recklessly swinging in the top of a tall hickory, the advance picket of a mountain forest. The tree was on the edge of a steep declivity of rocky pasture-land that fell rapidly down to the stately chestnuts, to the orchard, to the cornfields in the narrow valley, and the maples on the bank of the amber river, whose loud, unceasing murmur came to the lad on his aerial perch like the voice of some tradition of nature that he could not understand. He had climbed to the topmost branch of the lithe and tough tree in order to take the full swing of this free creature in its sport with the western wind. There was something exhilarating in this elemental battle of the forces that urge and the forces that resist, and the harder the wind blew, and the wider circles he took in the free air, the more stirred the boy was in the spring of his life. Nature was taking him by the hand, and it might be that in that moment ambition was born to achieve for himself, to conquer. If you had asked him why he was there, he would very likely have said, "To see the world." It was a world worth seeing. The prospect might be limited to a dull eye, but not to this lad, who loved to climb this height, in order to be with himself and indulge the dreams of youth. Any pretense would suffice for taking this hour of freedom: to hunt for the spicy checker-berries and the pungent sassafras; to aggravate the woodchucks, who made their homes in mysterious passages in this gravelly hillside; to get a nosegay of columbine for the girl who spelled against him in school and was his gentle comrade morning and evening along the river road where grew the sweet-flag and the snap-dragon and the barberry bush; to make friends with the elegant gray squirrel and the lively red squirrel and the comical chipmunk, who were not much afraid of this unarmed naturalist. They may have recognized their kinship to him, for he could climb like any squirrel, and not one of them could have clung more securely to this bough where he was swinging, rejoicing in the strength of his lithe, compact little body. When he shouted in pure enjoyment of life, they chattered in reply, and eyed him with a primeval curiosity that had no fear in it. This lad in short trousers, torn shirt, and a frayed straw hat above his mobile and cheerful face, might be only another sort of animal, a lover like themselves of the beech-nut and the hickory-nut.
