Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of James Abram Garfield, Vol. 1 For several years President Garfield had looked forward to a time when he would be able to revise and publish such of his speeches and writings as he deemed worthy of a place in American literature. It was a purpose that lay near his heart. What he would have selected for publication, and how far he would have carried revision, can now be only matters of speculation. His untimely death, which defeated so many other plans and dashed so many other hopes, prevented the realization of this fond anticipation, and, through the partiality of Mrs. Garfield, devolved the editorship of his works upon me. An account of the manner in which I have discharged the trust seems called for. The works were to be limited to matter that had been published in its author´s lifetime. All letters, manuscripts, etc. were reserved for future use. As to the handling of this material, it should be said, first of all, that no editor could have the same rights and powers over it that belonged to him who produced it. Equally obvious are the principles that should govern the selection of material to be used. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
