Description:Excerpt from Economic Essays Charles Franklin Dunbar was born at Abington, Massachusetts, July 28, 1830, and died at Cambridge, Massachusetts, January 29, 1900. For nearly thirty years, from 1871 until his death, he was Professor of Political Economy in Harvard University; and it was during this period that he prepared the essays printed in the present volume. Professor Dunbar did not enter on his academic career, however, until he had passed the age of forty. The best years of his early manhood were given to work of a very different sort. For ten years he was editor of a daily newspaper; a phase of his life little known to those who afterwards felt his influence as teacher and author, but one in which his success was no less marked. After graduating from Harvard College, in 1851, he engaged for a short time in business; health failing, spent a year at farming; then entered on the study of the law, and was admitted to the bar in 1858. Meanwhile, contributions from his pen had appeared in the Boston Daily Advertiser. In 1859 he became part owner and associate editor of that newspaper, and soon was sole responsible editor. From 1859 to 1869 all his energies were given to its editorial and business management. These ten years witnessed the most perilous and momentous events in the country's history. The times were trying for all men, and not least so for a high-minded man in charge of an important daily newspaper. Rapid decisions were called for on great questions; news of vital concern had to be gathered, sifted, presented; the conflicting tides of opinion in the community had to be at once followed and guided. The Advertiser, as conducted by Professor Dunbar, was a model newspaper, and deserved its position as the most influential journal in New England. It stood stoutly for the cause of the North, and never abated its unfaltering faith in the justice of that cause and in its ultimate triumph.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
