Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Enfranchisement and Citizenship: Addresses and Papers That quaint preacher, Robert Collyer, who mingles with his native Yorkshire characteristics a thoroughly Americanized tone, once said in my hearing, "Whenever I meet a new man, I always want to say to him, ´What´s the reason of ye?"´ Of course, Mr. Collyer could get a satisfactory answer to his question only by becoming acquainted with the new man: by finding out the reason in him, he found out the reason of him. To any one who takes up this volume of "Addresses and Papers," and inquires, Why was this book printed? I have but to say, If you will take the pains to read its three hundred and ninety-seven pages, I am confident that you will be satisfied it has a reason for existence. It is true that public interest in Addresses, and in contributions to magazines, rarely survives the delivery and first reading, and that there is ordinarily no impersonal reason for seeking to give them permanency in book form. In this volume, however, many readers are sure to recognize the treatment of topics connected with events of American history and phases of American thought during the last thirty-five years which were not only in their time of the first importance to us as a people, but which have retained to this day an undiminished interest and value.
