"Dear Sir. I have your letter of the 3d. in regard to my published works. The
only uniform edition is that of my earlier works published by the Harpers. There
are many of my occasional addresses also which have been published separately as
paphlets but which haye not been collected. Truly yours," George William
Curtis (1824-1892) was the lead editorial writer (1857) and then editor
of Harper's Weekly (1863). He was in favor of emancipation, equal
rights for Blacks, Native Americans and women, civil service reform, public
education and environmental conservation. Curtis, who declined an invitation to
become editor of the "New York Times", was known for speaking on the critical
issues of the day, and he authored some 40 books and pamphlets.
