Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wendell Phillips: The Faith of an American I thank you, Mr. President; and, my friends, no words can express the pleasure I take in this welcome, nor my sense of the honor you have done me. I greet the Society at the beginning of its career; and it is a great happiness to find myself asked to link with the occasion the memory of a man who was to me, and still is, one of the masters of my life. I want to tell you how it was that Wendell Phillips came to be, in my eyes, the ideal American. Do you realize what it was to be a boy in the days of the Civil War? Almost my first clear memory is of the family table when one of my older brothers burst in at the door, crying out, "They have fired on Sumter!" So deeply was that scene imprinted on my eyes that I can still see how every one looked. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
