TOWARDS
DEMOCRACY
The First Edition
Edward CARPENTER
A new presentation
of the 1st edition of Carpenter's timeless classic, a worthy
equal to Walt Whitman's'Leaves of Grass'.
"Edward
Carpenter is rather forgotten today, partly because he was a
pioneer whose work has passed into our heritage. He was a poet
and a prose writer, and a reformer and a mystic and a socialist
and a manual worker who preferred the working classes to his
own. He won't be easy to sum up"
E.M. Forster
