Bag om Sanctum Sanctorum

The book is a collection of essays, articles, and editorials that Tilton wrote during his time as an editor at various newspapers and magazines. The title of the book, Sanctum Sanctorum, refers to the private office or workspace of an editor, which is considered sacred and inviolable.The essays and articles in the book cover a wide range of topics, including politics, religion, literature, and social issues. Tilton was known for his progressive views on many of these topics, and his writing reflects his commitment to social justice and reform.One of the most famous pieces in the book is Tilton's account of his affair with Victoria Woodhull, a prominent feminist and suffragist.
