Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from American Addresses This volume of addresses, delivered at various times and places in America and intended as a companion book to that which I published last year containing addresses delivered by me in Great Britain, hardly requires any extended preface or explanation. Ranging through a period of nearly fifty years, from 1864 to 1911, they recall for the most part events and associations with which I was closely connected, and men whom I greatly honored and loved, and so in a way they form a part of my own life. I have given the first place to my kinsman, Rufus Choate, because of my personal relations to him and my great obligations to him, and because now, after the lapse of more than fifty years since his death, he still stands as the most famous and fascinating of American advocates. The lustre, of his fame is not dimmed and the charm of his personality is as familiar and as beloved as ever. Few men and women now living have ever seen or heard him, and his published orations and speeches give but a faint idea of the wonderful power of his presence and his voice, but the tradition of his matchless eloquence will linger for generations to come.
