Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln, Democrat Sixty years after the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln as the President of the United States, England welcomed him into the Valhalla of her great statesmen. His statue was placed upon the most historic spot in English history, looking upon the walls of the ancient Abbey Church and standing over against the Hall of Westminster. He seems to have slipped quietly, almost unobserved, into that sacred place, as if by some natural right. For that little plot of ground is the stage upon which, for a thousand years, was played the drama of individual liberty. There, shackles were broken, wrongs were righted, privileges wrung from despotic hands. Lincoln belongs to the heroic band of adventurers in the cause of freedom. He is of the succession, and no alien, in that goodly company. He too was cast for a leading part in the great drama, though the stage upon which he played was across the sea, whither Englishmen had carried the glowing passion of their race.
