The selections, as is to be expected, are of varying interest. I read it straight through, something I suspect few have ever done. Many of the selections are by prominent people--Oliver Wendell Holmes has two--one for 1857 (the year the Atlantic was started) and one for 1883. The article I thought most interesting and exciting was the one for 1908: "A Record-Breaking Balloon Voyage" by Henry Helm Clayton, which tells of a balloon voyage from St. Louis to New Jersey--872 miles.
