WHO WAS WHO 5000 B. C. to Date
Biographical Dictionary of the Famous and Those Who Wanted to Be
Edited by Irwin L. Gordon
NOTE
THE editor begs leave to inform the public that only persons who can
produce proper evidence of their demise will be admitted to Who Was
Who. Press Agent notices or complimentary comments are absolutely
excluded, and those offering to pay for the insertion of names will be
prosecuted. As persons become eligible they will be included without
solicitation, while the pages will be expurgated of others should good
luck warrant.
Who Was Who contains over 500 biographies of those who did or
endeavored to become famous. In a work of such magnitude errors
occasionally occur. Should this be the case, the editor will be glad to
receive corrections from the ex-celebrities or their enemies. These will
be accepted gratis. Proofs will be sent to all subscribers. Members of
the family will be able to order the coming editions in advance by
applying and remitting to the publisher.
The work is fully protected by the libel laws of the United States and
Great Britain. Under no circumstance will duels be fought.
The editor wishes to express his thanks to those who have furnished
material for this book. He also trusts they will show their good feeling
by purchasing a copy, and that all the unfortunates will speedily be
returned to Who's Who. THE EDITOR.
