Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Dutchman in Philadelphia Mr. President and Gentlemen: As a citizen of Philadelphia, the historic city of America, and as a member of the Pennsylvania-German Society, it gives me great pleasure to respond to the generous greetings of Dr. Stille. It has not been on every occasion that the Pennsylvania Dutchman has been regarded as a person worthy of praise and honor. A few years ago, one of our most celebrated divines, in publishing a history of the Protestant Episcopal Church, referred to him as an ignorant heathen. In the most recent history of Pennsylvania the learned author, who has given us an interesting, entertaining and in many respects a valuable book, after devoting one-half of his work to the literary, scientific and military achievements of the Pennsylvania Dutchman, stops to inquire whether, on the whole, his influence has been injurious or beneficial.
