Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Character of Capt. Wm; B. Allen, of Lawrence County Tenn: Who Fell at the Storming of Monterey, on the 21st of September, 1846, With an Appendix, Containing a Number of His Essays and Speeches The Sketch of the Life and Character of Capt. Wm. B. Allen, was undertaken by his devoted friend, Dr. W. P. Rowles. When he had proceeded in the work nearly to its completion, his progress was arrested by the hand of Death. He was a gentleman of very high literary attainments, and admirably qualified for the task he had assumed. After his death, the subscriber was applied to as a known friend and admirer of Capt. Allen, to finish the Sketch so ably begun. He was diffident of his ability to do justice to the subject, but as an evidence of the sincerity with which he cherished the memory of his deceased friend, he did not hesitate to consent. It is not to be expected that the life of one so young as was Capt. Allen, would abound in events of interest, and yet the reader will be surprised to find in these pages so much interesting and instructive materials. The work will commend itself especially to the young men of the country; and by a careful study of the character of Capt. Allen, much profit may be derived.
