Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fighting the Hun From Saddle and Trend "Why should I war without the walls of Troy?" - Shakespeare Why! Why are so many men ever ready at the sound of bugle and beat of drum to drop peaceful pursuits, forsake home and family and the association of old friends, to meet the dangers and discomforts attendant in a war upon their fellow beings? That love of country and devotion to its peace and welfare, called "Patriotism," actuates one´s conduct, and should, at a time when its security or honor is at stake. Then men should, and do, actuated by such feeling, forsake home and loved one´s and all else to serve their country. Men will also take up arms against their fellows when the safety and honor of home and family is endangered. That, also, is but natural, but why did I, and why do others, not imbued at the time with such feelings nor confronted with such calamity, take up arms and go to war? It must simply be to satisfy a desire or a feeling for adventure and excitement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
