Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial of Henry Ward Beecher, Vol. 10 Never was there a better illustration of the power of hereditary tendencies than that furnished by Henry Ward Beecher. In his well known eccentricities he was a feeble reproduction of his venerable father, who for more than half a century, kept himself and his denomination in hot water by deeds and utterances quite as sensational and bewildering as any recorded of his illustrious son. Fifty years ago Lyman Beecher ranked among the first of living pulpit orators, and in his own country was without a rival. He was of all men most fervid in illustration, most fertile in graphic delineation, most effective in utterance. Though the last years of his life were spent in Brooklyn, in which city he died twenty years ago, and though he attained to his chief distinction and career of usefulness in Ohio, it was in New England that he was born and reared and that he reached his first national fame.
