It is irrefutable that those who write and edit the records select evidence which confirms and justifies their own scheme of values; it is what men have done from the bible to Margaret Fuller; it is what Susan B. Anthony (with a little help from her friends) did to Gage; it is what I am doing here. By such a process of selection, many individuals and activities that are inconsistent with the values being put forward by the writers and editors are omitted, and are in danger of becoming consigned to obscurity, if not oblivion.
