"Its purpose: Today -every day - there is something we would like to know and to understand. 'Learn one thing every day' might be the legend of The Human Interest Library.
Its purpose is to acquaint the reader with the human interest facts of the world's knowledge through his devoting five minutes of spare time each day to interesting reading and to looking at instructive pictures." "Its method: In order that this knowledge may be acquired agreeably and without special effort, the facts have been woven into gripping human interest stories - stories that give in concise manner and without unnecessary detail, just what everyone wants to know about a famous person, place, picture or event, Each story is complete in itself and can be read in a few moments of spare time. If one story only is read every day, every day something worth while will be learned, and the reader will be quite unaware of any effort to acquire knowledge." Black and white illustration.
