Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life Public Services, Addresses and Letters of Elias Boudinot, LL. D, Vol. 1 of 2: President of the Continental Congress Lapse of time and the stirring events of our Civil War have thrown somewhat into shade our patriot fathers, with the exception of the one colossal figure looming above the later troubled sea of strife and war, the light of whose patriotism has pierced all misty shadows of the past, and whose name is a watchword for all that is grand and noble. The spell of that great name we invoke to bid "come again, ye children of men," and marshal before us his faithful followers and co-workers. Elias Boudinot was one of these, the friend of Washington, an ardent patriot and philanthropist, resolute and earnest, of strong intellectual fibre; he gave the greater part of a long life to the service of his country. Be it ever remembered that these men were treading a new and untried path, leading and legislating for a new order of things. To all of them, as time yields us more and more of their records, do we owe our homage. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
