About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of The New Atlantis by Francis Bacon. Read by Bill Boerst In 1623, Francis Bacon expressed his aspirations and ideas in New Atlantis. Released in 1627, this was his creation of an ideal land where people were kind, knowledgeable, and civic-minded. Part of this new land was his perfect college, a vision for our modern research universities. Islands he had visited may have served as models for his ideas. ( Summary by Wikipedia )
