Famous Men Who Lived Without Luxuries
In Philadelphia Evening Telegraph remarks, Girard notes figures such as Shakespeare who never drank tea or coffee yet produced great works. Napoleon died long ago without steamers or trains, Lincoln lacked electric light and telephone yet freed enslaved people. McKinley may not have ridden in a car. Crant never knew wireless. Athens and St Peter's Cathedral stand as milestones by men who never perceived newspapers.
