Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Charles Sumner: His Boyhood, Education, and Public Career The design of this work is to set forth in distinct relief the life, character, and public career of an accomplished scholar, an incorruptible statesman, and an eminent and eloquent defender of human freedom. In every age men have arisen, and, by the force of an original genius and a lofty aspiration, have come to stand as heralds in the fore-front of national progress. Their high mission has been to point with a prophetic finger to the coming issues; to sway and elevate with a commanding eloquence the public mind; to meet the exigencies of the × and to pursue, unterrified by power and above the reach of bribery, their own elected course with an unfaltering steadiness to the end. Such was the dauntless John Hampden of the Long Parliament in the days of Charles the First; such was the patriot Samuel Adams in our Revolutionary crisis; such was the golden-voiced Charles Sumner in the ordeal from which we now are slowly rising.
