Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Switzerland the Pioneer of the Reformation, Vol. 1: Or La Suisse Allemande Of the many thousands who every summer visit Switzerland to revel in "the palaces of Nature." only a very small proportion while there look below the surface, and ask themselves whence it comes that, in the very heart of Europe, there exists a country without passports or vexatious police regulations, the abode of civil and religious liberty. claiming as her children some of the foremost names in the world´s catalogue of illustrious benefactors, and. albeit but a third-rate power, firmly asserting her neutrality, when it has been threatened with violation, in consequence of the generous protection she has accorded to those who are persecuted for their political liberalism. Such a phenomenon would attract notice under whatever circumstances: how much more so, when it is remembered that the history of Switzerland is almost as romantically interesting to the student as her unrivalled scenery to the tourist, and that she has ever occupied a most conspicuous position in the van of one of those great divisions of Christian society, whose dissensions during four hundred years have convulsed Europe, and yet have to this day left the "quæstio vexatio" in great measure unsettled. Of late years the English reading public have had their attention more than ordinarily concentrated on Switzerland.
