      Today in Human Geo we talked about Elbert Hubbard. Elbert Hubbard wrote a Message to Garcia. The Message to Garcia was a letter ranting about how people never do what they are asked without complaints, or questions. However, there was one gentleman Rowan who did exactly what he was told without any questions. In the Message to Garcia they explained how while the Spanish-American war was going on Rowan delivered a message for president McKinney. It took Rowan three weeks ,but he delivered the message and never asked any questions. The moral of the Message to Garcia was how people never do what they are told. People always ask questions or ask other people to do their work for them. Rowan did what he was told. The Message to Garcia was published in 1899, and went viral. Everyone wanted a copy of this. Over a million copies were printed. Overall, I was fascinated in class today by the Message to Garcia.
