Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Moral Crusader, William Lloyd Garrison: A Biographical Essay Founded on the "Story of Garrison´s Life Told by His Children" There is sometimes a crisis in the history of a nation when a man is urgently needed to prick the national conscience on a moral question. The man need not be supremely wise after the fashion of earthly wisdom, nor supremely strong after the fashion of earthly strength. But he must be himself an impersonation of conscience. He must be perfectly pure and disinterested, free not only from ambition and cupidity, but from vanity, from mere love of excitement, from self-seeking of every kind, as well as brave, energetic, persevering, and endowed with a voice which can make itself heard. Such a crisis was the ascendency of the Slave Power in the United States, and such a man was William Lloyd Garrison.
