Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cities and Citizens: Or Britain´s Next Campaign "Righteousness exalteth a nation." - Prov. xiv., 34. The year 1900 will be known to coming generations as one of the beacon lights in British history, but whatever the judgment of posterity concerning its aims and their outcome, it will be famous for one thing: believing their country´s interests to be at stake, men in wondrous loyalty have risen by the thousand, the English, Irish, and Scotch alike bleeding bravely for its honour. We are sobering down now, the price paid was heavy, and returning from the dearly-bought ends of the Empire, a man may well survey his homeland. After all there is no place like home, and having made such an effort for our prestige abroad, let us see if we cannot do something of the sort within our own borders. Granted that we are an Imperial people; we ought to be, for our privileges are great; and if another burst of patriotism, like the one witnessed lately, yet for other aims, could leave its impress on the country´s records, we might indeed win advantage for ourselves and good report among nations.
