Message to Garcia Review

Today in class we learned more about A Message to Garcia. We know that it was published in march 1899.  It was reprinted pamphlet as well as a book.  There where more then 40 million copies sold.  It was also translated into 37 more languages.   A message to Garcia was made into a movie twice.  The setting took place in the Spanish American War.  The second tallest mountain in the the united states was named after him.  The mountain is now changed to what it was named before him.  Now lets talk about Arete.  Arete means excellence in any kind, moral virtue, fulfillment of purpose or function.  Agora is gathering place, assembly, marketplace.  So far a really like human geography class.  It is one of my favorite class in the school.  I also really like the teacher.  I really enjoy being in the class and I wish it would last the whole year.
