August Series of the Month: The Works of Robert G. Ingersoll

American freethinker and author Robert Green Ingersoll was born in August of 1833, therefore, we at Cosimo are celebrating by reading The Works of Robert G. Ingersoll as our Series of the Month!

Ingersoll was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. 

Legendary as a speaker—he memorized his speeches and could talk for hours without notes—and as a proponent of freethought, Ingersoll is an American original whose words still ring with truth and power today. His most important works are gathered in this 12-volume collected edition, first published posthumously in 1901.
