Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Miscellaneous Works of Colonel Humphreys My Lord, Your knowledge of the language in which these miscellanies are written, your protection of the fine arts, and your civilities to the Author, induce him to address this Collection to your Lordship. It is consistent with the frankness of a free-born American to say, that your noble blood, and immense possessions, would be of little consideration with the Republicans, whose Constitutions of Government you have made familiar to your own nation by translating them into French, if unsupported by your personal merit and amiable accomplishments. The frequency of naval intercourse, and the extension of polite literature, seem greatly to approximate the distant parts of the globe - the Atlantic is no barrier for limiting fame. Your reputation has been long since extensively and advantageously known throughout the United States of America.
