    • Notes:
      "Originally ... published by Geoffrey Bles of London in 1949 under the title Transposition and other addresses and later that same year by Macmillan of New York as The weight of glory and other addresses. Since that time the volumes of essays on the two sides of the Atlantic have differed somewhat, and this book is an attempt to put things right.... [R]esetting the text of the book ... afforded the ... occasion for enlarging the volume by three addresses never published in the United States and one never published anywhere before."--Introd.
