Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from William H. Seward as a Lawyer: Review of His Legal Career, Description of Some of the Important Trials in Which He Was Engaged William H. Seward had many qualities that insure eminence at the bar. He was a finished classical scholar and an assiduous legal student. A minute and rapid observation, a memory at once retentive and ready, a mind enlarged by immense reading, capable of tireless exertion were among his fortunate attributes. Reflection presided over all his mental efforts, rendering them practical and effective, though often, in striving to be accurate, he became too specific and prolix. Judge Esek Cowen, who always held Mr. Seward in high esteem, once said: "William H. Seward is one of the most effective reasoners at the bar, rendered so by the correct manner in which he demonstrates his legal problems; but he is sometimes thought obscure from the intellectual effort required to follow him." As a speaker at the bar, in the Senate and popular assembly, he was not distinguished for showy oratorical graces, which often give a speaker of inferior mental qualities ephemeral popularity.
