Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Journal of James Melvin: Private Soldier in Arnold´s Expedition Against Quebec in the Year 1775 No better rule for the writing of a history has ever been laid down, or one that would be better worth adopting by historians, with their best efforts to strictly follow, than that one which was enunciated, not very long ago, by our venerated pontiff, Leo XIII, relative to some proposed publication from the Vatican archives. Said he: - "The first law of History is not to dare tell a lie, the second not to fear to tell the truth; besides, let the Historian be beyond all suspicion of favoring or hating anyone whomsoever." Had this excellent rule been always followed in the past, the world might possibly have been spared some volumes long accepted as authority.
