Washington probably was never manicured nor Jefferson nor Franklin; it's a cinch that Daniel Boone and Israel Putnam and George Rogers Clark weren't and yet it is generally conceded that they got along fairly well without it.

In 1866, at the moment when war broke out between Prussia and Austria, Serge was eighteen years old.
