Bücher von William Burgess

""Land, Labor, And Liquor: A Chapter In The Political Economy Of The Present Day"" is a book written by William Burgess in 1887. The book delves into the complex and intertwined issues of land ownership, labor rights, and the sale and consumption of alcohol in the context of the political economy of the time. Burgess argues that these three issues are closely related and must be addressed together in order to create a fair and just society. He explores the history and current state of each issue, and offers his own proposals for reform. The book is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of some of the most pressing social and economic issues of the late 19th century, and remains relevant today as a historical document and a source of inspiration for those seeking to create a more equitable society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

November 2015 marked the third year the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library sponsored events in support of National Novel Writing Month. Awe-struck by the hard work and dedication of the 35+ writers that attended the Library's events over the course of the month, we decided to publish a third annual book of excerpts from the writing done by writers in the Corvallis area during NaNoWriMo 2015. Thirteen phenomenal writers contributed their work and we present them for you here. We hope you will be inspired by their work and encouraged to take the challenge yourself next year!
