Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stephen Grellet The following is the Life of a man who saw the last days of the great French Monarchy, shared the sufferings of the old French Nobility, traversed Europe several times on a mission of Mercy during the wars of the First Napoleon, assisted after the peace in the development of a new period, was one among the first and foremost workers for the abolition of slavery, aided in the advancement of the United States Republic to its present greatness, and lived on beyond the middle of this century. This remarkable life has hitherto been little known beyond the circle of the Society of Friends. The "Memoirs of the Life and Gospel Labors of Stephen Grellet," edited by Benjamin Seebohm, are contained in two large and closely printed octavo volumes, and have passed through three Editions. There is also an interesting and good sized volume, called an "Abridged Edition," by R. and C. R. Alsop, but written mainly for the use of Friends. Messrs. Samuel Harris & Co., have courteously granted permission to prepare in a briefer form a Life intended for the general Christian public.
