Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Horace Greeley: The Editor This volume, while the most complete, does not pretend to be an exhaustive account of Horace Greeley, nor of the times and the "causes" with which he was identified, and in some of them a magna pars. It undertakes, however, to give a condensed, unified, and popular presentation of the man, and what he stood for in the thick of days which made history rapidly, and saw our young Republic change from the gristle of its aspiring and rest less youth into its settled and not unscarred maturity. My chief material and authority have been Mr. Greeley´s own Recollections of a Busy Life, published in 1868. Mr. James Parton´s delightful omnium gatherum of Greeleyana, published in 1855, is, of course, a mine of wealth, especially valuable as being written under the eye and doubtless with the concurrence of Mr. Greeley himself, as St. Peter is credited with the supervision or approval of his disciple Mark´s gospel.
