The Yardstick Man is a novel written by Arthur Frederick Goodrich and first published in 1910. The story revolves around a man named John Harleston, who is known as the Yardstick Man because of his job as a surveyor. John is a hardworking and honest man who is respected by everyone in his small town.However, John's life takes a dramatic turn when he falls in love with a woman named Alice, who is engaged to another man. John is torn between his love for Alice and his sense of morality, and he must decide whether to pursue his feelings or to do what is right.As the story unfolds, John is faced with a series of challenges and obstacles that test his character and his resolve. He must navigate through a web of deceit and betrayal, and he must confront his own weaknesses and flaws.The Yardstick Man is a timeless tale of love, honor, and sacrifice, and it is a classic example of early 20th-century American literature. The novel is a must-read for anyone who enjoys historical fiction or for those who appreciate a good love story with a moral message.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
