Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Sentry, or Beacon Hill: The Beacon and the Monument of 1635 and 1790 So completely has the existence of the Monument which stood on Beacon Hill, no longer ago than 1811, passed out of the public mind, that few persons are now to be found who remember it. and a small number who have ever seen a representation of it, or in fact, think they ever heard of it. The tablets which have been preserved in the State House, are looked upon as the relics or ruins of something long since passed away, and not as parts of a noble and beautiful monument, intended to commemorate great historical events and the fruition of the efforts of a people to secure their freedom and independence, and which has been ruthlessly destroyed. Many persons who have seen the engraving of the monument, have asked "if such a monument as that represents ever stood in Boston?" and others, equally uninformed, inquire "if that is the original Bunker Hill Monument?" We doubt if any intelligent foreigner, acquainted with our history, would have to ask such questions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
