Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Salute to the Valiant To those who exalt human nature and dignify life by that passive courage, named fortitude, which Locke calls the guard and support of all other virtues - courage in comparison with which mere daring is but casual and inconstant, desultory and flighty; those who for our ennobling show us that steady patience in suffering which Milton extols as the truest fortitude, and who in desperate conditions come off more than conqueror: In tribute, further, to those who have a heart to feel for others´ woes and who minister thereto: In tribute, finally, to all who, with world-visioning missionary minds, looking on perishing multitudes at home and abroad, share the spirit of Saint Paul in Frederick Myer´s poem: "Then with a thrill the intolerable craving Shivers through me like a trumpet call. Oh, to save these, to perish for their saving, Die for their life, be offered for them all." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
