Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from American Crisis Biographies: William Lloyd Garrison This, like prefaces in general, is mostly an itemized acknowledgment of indebtedness. My first and pleasant duty is to state that this book is written conjointly with my friend, Henry Burrowes Lathrop, Associate Professor of English in the University of Wisconsin. The original agreement with the publishers does not, to my regret, allow me to link his name with mine on the title page. Two years ago, when the work was due and the general editor was courteously pressing me for the manuscript, I failed suddenly in health. Professor Lathrop then kindly offered to share a burden which I could not have borne alone. That the book at last appears at all is due to his generous aid and his ability to compass a task by no means easy. Each has so freely criticized the other that the entire work is really an expression of two minds working in reasonable harmony; but it is fair to my associate for me to say that the last part is practically of his writing, while the first eight chapters and the final chapter are mine. Such is my gratitude to Professor Lathrop, that I sincerely hope we may share the praise, if any is given, and that all shortcomings will be laid at my door. Another deep obligation is to the monumental life of Garrison written by two of his sons. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
