5.0 out of 5 stars
Pre-Inflation
These days, celebrity authors earn thousands of dollars for a speech, but back in the 1880s, Ralph Waldo Emerson, the first American author known to receive payment for delivering a talk, was paid $5 and oats for his horse.

not complete
IF you're buying this to get a smattering of Emerson, fine; you'll get an introduction. The problem is that the kindle book doesn't contain the complete works of Emerson, as the title might suggest. You get an extremely abridged version of of the essay "Nature", for example.
