Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Young People´s History of France One thing is to be said concerning the history of France: it is instructive, for it includes every system of government that the ingenuity of man can devise and some that none but a Frenchman could evolve. From the bottom to the top and then down again, the whole gamut has been run. France has been ruled by savages, who made no pretensions of being anything else, and by men who claimed to be civilized and yet were ten times worse than the unadulterated savage. She has had monsters of villainy seated on her throne and holding the scales of life and death; she has had good men and wise statesmen for her rulers; she has been an aristocracy, a monarchy, an absolute despotism, a Commune, which is another name for an orgie of murderers, who feared not God, man nor the devil, and of late years and at present she seems to be a Republic. France is a wonderful nation; she knows how to worship a man as a demi-god to-day and to lop off his head to-morrow.
