Henry Salt called his autobiography Seventy Years Among Savages. [1] It tells of a life lived entirely in England. As one might therefore guess, Salt's writings were not well received when they appeared, during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Now George and Willene Hendrick have done Salt a much-needed posthumous service by presenting his ideas to a world sympathetic to the tenor of his thought.
