Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Account of General La Fayette´s Visit to Virginia: In the Years 1824-25 This volume contains an interesting account of the visit of General La Fayette to Virginia in 1824 and 1825. In it, will be found full reports of his triumphant progress, and of the receptions and honors bestowed upon him by the people, wherever he went. They were written by persons who were present on the respective occasions, the ceremonies of which they record. It may be confidently affirmed, that those who read these accounts, will be pleased and instructed. Never before, perhaps, has there occurred such a combination of circumstances to invest with interest, the visit of a person so well calculated to arouse the deepest emotions of the people, and to make them feel and express their profound gratitude and affection, for one who had assisted so effectively in gaining the independence of their country, and Was so worthy of all honor and admiration. Never before has it been the good fortune of such a man as General La Fayette to revisit, after so long an absence, the scenes where in his early life he had gained immortal glory and renown. His is a unique character in history. Washington alone excepted, the American people have never bestowed on any other man so much of their esteem, admiration, and love. All throughout the United States in 1824 and 1825, the people met General La Fayette in a manner which expressed these sentiments towards him; but nowhere were they exhibited in a higher degree than in Virginia.
