1 | A Message to Garcia (Unabridged) | Elbert Hubbard |
"A Message to Garcia" is an inspirational essay by Elbert Hubbard, and was first published in 1899. It highlights the value of individual initiative and uses, as its primary example, a dramatized account of a brave feat performed by an American soldier, Andrew S. Rowan, just before the Spanish-American War. The narrative describes Rowan carrying a message from President William McKinley to General Calixto García, a leader of the Cuban insurgents in the mountains of Cuba. The essay has been published in book form and reprinted in many anthologies of inspirational literature. |
