Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of Gen. A. C. Ducat It was the wish of General Arthur C.Ducat, definitely expressed some time before his death, that a record of his life, both civil and military, should be prepared for his family and for distribution among his personal friends here and in his native country. In fulfillment of his request, the following memorial has been compiled, largely from the General´s own papers, and the writer trusts that this imperfect sketch of a strong and many-sided personality may yet commend itself to those best qualified to judge of its fidelity to the original, and to impart from their own inner remembrance, life and color to this silhouette of Arthur C. Ducat, the sagacious man of business, the gallant soldier, the loving parent, and the true and faithful friend. "As when a painter, poring o´er a face, Divinely thro´ all hindrance finds the man Behind it, and so paints him that his face, The shape and color of a mind and life, Lives for his children, ever at its best And fullest." "Lindenwald", September, 1897. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
