Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Canadian North-West: Its History and Troubles, From the Early Days of the Fur-Trade the Era of the Railway and the Settler; With Incidents of Travel in Tum Region, and the Narrative of Three Insurrections "No fabled land of joy and song is this That lieth in the glow of eventide; Not sung by bards of old in minstrel strain, Yet he who reads its history shall learn Of doughty deeds well worth all knightly fame. It is a land of rivers flowing free, Lake-mirrored mountains, rising proud and stem, A land of spreading prairies ocean wide, Where harsh sounds slumber in the hush of gloom, And peace hath brooded with outstretched wings. And here a mighty people shall arise, A peopled nurtured in full liberty; Yet, not forgetful of the mother land, Who scans with kindly eye her child´s career, Wafting a blessing o´er the mighty sea. Such be thy future; 0, thou land of hope, Where, in the fear of God and love of home, Thy people shall increase 0, may thy soil Bear many a thinker, many a man of might, Many a statesman fitted to control, Many a hero, fitted to command. Such may thy future be - not great alone, In never-sated commerce, - rather great In all that welds a people heart to heart; Among thy sons may many a leader spring, By whom the ship of State well piloted, Thy haven of wide Empire thou may st reach, An empire stretching from the western wave To where the rosy dawn enflames the seas," About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
