A Message to Garcia

A Message to Garcia, Elbert Hubbard's classic 1899 essay, delivers the message that the true hero is the man who does his work well and without question —the man who carries the ''message to Garcia.'' The essay is based on the true story of young Lieutenant Andrew Summers Rowan, who at the time of the Spanish-American War was sent to Cuba alone to carry out a difficult mission, which he did with ''sheer courage and indomitable spirit.'' With archival printing, this pocket-sized edition is designed for both portability and longevity. Hardcover gift volume with dust jacket is a classic addition to any home or office library. Book measures 4-1/2'' wide x 7-1/2'' high. 32 pages.
