A Life of Love, Laughter & Work—Captured in Words

The Notebook of Elbert Hubbard is a brilliant collection of thought-provoking epigrams, essays, and reflections from one of America's most distinctive literary voices of the early 20th century.

This 1927 edition, introduced by Alice Hubbard, offers readers a glimpse into Hubbard’s personal philosophy, centered around love, labor, individualism, and creativity.

Hubbard’s razor-sharp wit and poetic sensibility shine through in each entry, making this a perfect volume for daily inspiration, contemplation, or gifting to a fellow creative spirit. As the founder of the Roycroft artists’ community and a leading figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement, Hubbard’s legacy lives on through these words.
