Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from John Witherspoon Witherspoon´s life is notable in connection with four important movements: the struggle for popular rights in the Church of Scotland; the administration of Princeton College; the organization of the American Presbyterian Church; and the American Revolution. I have tried to tell the story of his life simply and accurately. As I have avoided the use of footnotes I shall indicate here the sources of my information. For the Scotch period these were Cunningham´s "History of Scotland," "Autobiography of Rev. Alexander Carlyle" and the Minutes of the General Assembly; for the American period, Bancroft´s "History of the United States," "Sprague´s Annals," Sanderson´s "Lives of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence," Tyler´s "Literary History of the American Revolution" McLean´s "History of the College of New Jersey," John Adams´ Diary, the Writings of Washington. But in all cases I have also used the original documents. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
