Abstract

The Saturday Press condemns Appleton’s New American Cyclopedia for being poorly put together and entirely unreliable. The greedy men at Appleton are tricking the public into buying a faulty text which cost little to make, and whose proceeds will be large. The Press feels that it has a duty to bring these issues to attention, though it does so at some cost.
