Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Gallegher, and Other Stories One of the most attractive and inspiring things about Richard Harding Davis was the simple, almost matter-of-course way in which he put into practise his views of life - in which he acted, and in fact was, what he believed. With most of us, to have opinions as to what is the right thing to do is at the best to worry a good deal as to whether we are doing it; at the worst to be conscious of doubts as to whether it is a sufficient code, or perhaps whether it isn´t beyond us. Davis seemed to have neither of these wasters of strength. He had certain simple, clean, manly convictions as to how a man should act; apparently quite without self-consciousness in this respect, whatever little mannerisms or points of pride he may have had in others - fewer than most men of his success and fastidiousness - he went ahead and did accordingly, untormented by any alternatives or casuistries, which for him did not seem to exist. He was so genuinely straightforward that he could not sophisticate even himself, as almost every man occasionally does under temptation. He, at least, never needed to be told "Go put your creed into your deed Nor speak with double tongue." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
