Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Voter´s Version of the Life and Character of Stephen Arnold Douglas By a Voter´s Version of the Life and Character of Douglas is intended here a history of that great statesman, drawn from all known sources of the truth, transforming into simple statement of the truth as apprehended much that is extravagant in other histories of Douglas, and dependent wholly on the vigor and beauty of the truth for its attractiveness. The writer has been urged to undertake this version, not by a committee, but by voters as such. When the work was first suggested to him, he had seeming reasons for regarding it with strong repugnance. And he was not easily induced to undertake it. To appear before the public, with whatever careful explanation, as the author of a Life and Character of Douglas, is to risk the imputation of an undue eagerness to figure as a politician. Reasons which the author need not here advance, make him especially desirous to avoid that imputation. But each voter, as such, has a duty to perform at present, of which few have had examples. The approaching contest at the polls may be well described as an expected but a quite unprecedented trial of ideas, interests, and relations.
