Kansas Biographies
In these
2100+
biographies are found the names, portraits (coming soon) and accounts of a
great number of the people of the state of Kansas. Preserving the records
of families is at least as worth while as keeping record of live stock.
These biographies also have a great value in interpreting the broader
movements described in the
general history.
The truth is, biography is a most important portion of any historical
effort. In the great drama of history, all play a part—more or less
important—more or less significant. Some are the mere settings of the
stage. Some play an insignificant part. But others—the strong men in a
community or state—those who labor and achieve—these are the men who
really possess and preserve the genius of a people and perpetuate to
ultimate destiny the real trend of a commonwealth's progress. The combined
stories of the lives of these men create and constitute, in the main, true
history. They furnish a standard by which can be computed the results of
combined effort in the up-building of states and nations.
