    About this ebook

    SPIRITUAL HEROISM is a real gem, a small book of heroic philosophy, quotations and paraphrased snippets from down-to-earth wise men: Rousseau, Thoreau, Nietzsche, and other famous minds. Hare researches only the best of writers. He renews their profundities, their well-reasoned maxims. Hare's distilled prose is fine art. Enjoy!
