Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Patriot Boy: Or the Life and Career of Major-General Ormsby M. Mitchel The "Young American´s Library" would indeed be wanting in one of the most instructive and encouraging examples of the highest success in the midst of disheartening trials, of a resolute will and hopeful spirit, without the life of General Mitchel. This volume is from authentic sources; and it is believed that in no important statement will the truthfulness of the narrative he questioned. Still the portraiture drawn must fall below the splendid original. For, while the records of his life are not full as we could wish, and as the "great departed" intended they should be for the sake of his family, it is no idle task to present, with fidelity, a life and character in successful activity and moral excellence so far above that of the majority of distinguished men. Some latitude has been taken in the introduction of incidents and explanations, which, if not directly connected with General Mitchel´s career, shed light upon the strong points in his nature, and on the conflict in which he sacrificed his noble life.
