Sixty-Five Press Interviews With Robert G. Ingersoll

The speeches of Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899), "the Great Agnostic," sparked great controversy in 19th-century America, and are well published even today. But Ingersoll also spoke to reporters -- some friendly, some not. This valuable archive of rare articles, 65 Press Interviews With Robert G. Ingersoll, collects from over two dozen newspapers Ingersoll's comments on freethought, the Bible, heaven and hell, miracles, church creeds, missionaries, Sunday blue laws, prohibition, anarchism, aging, current events, and even on theater, music, literature, and summer vacations.

The introduction is by Madalyn Murray O'Hair, founder of American Atheists Inc. The foreword is by Richard M. Smith.
