Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical, Poetical Pictorial American Scenes The object of this work, is to present to the reader a series of Historical Incidents in American History, (some of which may not be generally known,) in an historical, pictorial, and poetic form. We are aware that the plan of this work differs from any we have yet seen, but we flatter ourselves that it will be found interesting and instructive. In the historical introduction to each of the scenes described, we have aimed at accuracy and simplicity; in the lines that follow, there is, of course, latitude given to introduce moral and religious reflections. Whatever we have advanced of this nature, we trust will be found in accordance with the great and vital principles of Christianity. Instead of glorifying mere military heroes, as is too often the case among all nations, we have aimed to give prominence to men who practised the virtues of Christianity. Such men only are the real patriots and nobles of the human race, and such only are worthy of lasting remembrance. In some instances, in the composition of the stanzas, we have not hesitated to use the language, or mode of expression used by others, whenever it would forcibly convey what we wished to present.
