| MKI Annotation | From the Vorwort (signed Hudson City, N. J., im Maerz 1868): "Auch in diesem Lesebuch wurde die feichte Sentimentalitaet und alberne Hohlheit der amerikanischen Lesebuecher gewissenhaft vermieden. Wohl ist die ethische Bildung der Endzweck der Schule; sie muss aber ebenso sorgsam die nuechterne, gezwungene Richtung der Amerikaner, wie die ueberschwaenglich geschwungene mancher Deutschen zu vermeiden suchen." --- STEIGER, Ernst, German-American bibliographer, born in Gastewitz, Saxony, 4 October 1832. He was trained as a bookseller, emigrated in 1855 to New York City, and in 1863 opened an independent business. He became the publisher of important works of German Americans and of language textbooks, and also a manufacturer and importer of all that belongs to the Kindergarten system. Mr. Steiger is the author of "Der Nachdruck in Nordamerika" (New York, 1860); "Das Copyright-Law in den Vereinigten Staaten" (1869) ; and "Periodical Literature," a bibliography (1873).
