PROSPECTUS
OF
The Continental Monthly.
* * * * *
There are periods in the world's history marked by extraordinary and
violent crises, sudden as the breaking forth of & volcano, or the
bursting of a storm on the ocean. These crises sweep away in a moment
the landmarks of generations. They call out fresh talent, and give to
the old a new direction. It is then that new ideas are born, new
theories developed. Such periods demand fresh exponents, and new men for
expounders.
This Continent has lately been convulsed by an upheaving so sudden and
terrible that the relations of all men and women to each other are
violently disturbed, and people look about for the elements with which
to sway the storm and direct the whirlwind.
