Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life, Speeches, and Public Services of James a Garfield: Twentieth President of the United States; Including an Account of His Assassination, Lingering Pain, Death, and Burial History is but the aggregate of individual biographies, and it sometimes happens in the history of great nations that the biography of a single man, comprehensively written, contains all the important history of the government through a series of years. The study of biography in the records of nearly every nation furnishes the surest and easiest means of obtaining certain and lasting information concerning the institutions, character, events, and time. It is, however, in the moral effect upon the readers that the writing and study of biography places its highest claims. It encourages the young, gives hope to the hopeless, warns the careless, cautions the foolish, and by its descent into the little details of practical life furnishes a guide, companion, and counselor to every student. The life of the martyred President, James Abram Garfield, furnishes a record of peculiar advantage to the young men of our land in their choice of habits, professions, companions, and political principles. It is surely a remarkably transparent and pure life. Yet we have too much confidence in our nation to think that even his life is a very great exception.
