Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of John Mitchel, Vol. 2 of 2 The first entry made in the "Jail Journal," after the account of the visit to O´Brien, is dated January 1, 1853. There are passages in this entry to the same effect as in the letters quote at the end of the last chapter. These passages allow us to see very clearly the direction in which Mitchel´s thoughts were now tending, and the feelings with which he was coming to regard his Tasmanian life: - It is long since I have made an entry in my log-book. Of literature I am almost sick, and prefer farming, and making market of my wool. There is somewhat stupefying to the brain, as well as invigorating to the frame in this genial clime and aromatic air. A phenomenon for which I strive to account in various modes. We, also, John Knox and I, have eaten narcotic lotos here; and if it has not removed, it has surely softened the sting, even of our nostalgia.
