Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Famous Leaders Series of Character in America From the Latter, Half of Nineteenth Century, the Life Stories of Boys Who Have Impressed Their on the Life and History of the United States To my boy friends: Do you know the stirring stories in the lives of Lodge and Harding, Wilson and Roosevelt; of Sumner and Garrison and Phillips; of Cleveland; of Hale; of Robert E. Lee? These are men whose names stand for great minds and brave and noble characters. In this volume I have sought to bring together a group of men who, unlike the average American, have counted success, not so much in dollars and cents, as in a devotion to high ideals. Money has been to them of secondary consideration, if of any consideration at all. Although they have been constantly brought in contact with the ways and ideas of men of the world, which were absolutely contrary to their ideals, these men have been loyal and faithful in practice, as well as profession, to the spiritual qualities of justice, mercy, purity and honesty. They have been soldiers of the spirit, great-hearted men of action, who have won the admiration and respect of even their bitterest enemies. The need of the hour has been met by these men of moral strength. They have given out, instead of taking in. In being true to themselves, they have been true to others. Their early struggles to do right, developed in them those qualities which were, later, to benefit the world.
