[Greg · Rating 1 out of 5]

As the book's cover says, it contains predictions from a variety of people back in the 1890's about what life will be like in the 1990's. It is not the opinions of 1890's futurists or educated people, or those who might have even a clue about trends in society, government, and so on. Where are these great thinkers? Instead there are opinions from a humorist, a poet, a journalist/crusader, theologians, ministers. Not only that, but there are multiple opinions in a variety of areas by the same person.
Overall, a waste of paper.
