Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Arnold´s Expedition to Quebec Two years have elapsed since the publication of Mr. Codman´s picturesque narrative of Arnold´s Expeditions to Quebec. The confident expectation of his friends has been realized by a demand that, having required two editions, now justifies the presentation of a third, in a new and more attractive form. Popular interest so cordially exhibited in the work itself encourages a belief that those who have seen something of the author revealed in his printed pages, may wish to learn more of him who has so admirably told the story of brave men, and of extraordinary suffering borne with unfaltering fortitude. He who himself possesses courage can best tell of deeds of daring; he who has endured hardship and disappointment without complaint and undismayed by difficulties wrought out to a conclusion the work he has undertaken, is best fitted to justly record the heroism of the leaders of a forlorn hope. Though never called to the ultimate test of manhood by any service like that of which he wrote, none who knew Mr. Codman have doubt that he would have borne himself under such trials, as he bore himself always in life, fearlessly upright, with high courage following the path of his duty, whatever danger or obstacle might lie before him. He had a singular and uncompromising love of Justice, bitter scorn of all meanness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
