Book Description
Excerpt from Patriotic Reader: Or, Human Liberty Developed; In Verse and Prose, From Various Ages, Lands, and Races, With Historical Notes The "Patriotic Reader" has for its purpose the use of utterances that inspire good citizenship. The youth of America share in the excitements of the day, and, amid all their opportunities for the study of history and science, are tempted to overvalue sensational culture, and postpone until they enter upon the serious duties of active life the real preparation for those duties. No apology is made for selections, or omissions, in this effort to contribute to their reading material. The restoration to a more general use of the grand words of our fathers, and those of the earliest and of classical times, is based upon that plain logic of all human history which asserts the love of liberty and love of country to be the yearning desire of the human soul. The trend of forty centuries was toward a "promised country;" and Jerusalem of old was sacred not only as a shrine "to which the tribes went up," hut as a beloved capital. The nineteen following centuries only intensify the essential elements of that Hebrew devotion; and every form of dissent, whether of despotism or anarchism, is repulsive to the true interests of society, which find the best happiness of the many through the happiness of each. Mere heroism is not always patriotic, but its purest type is where the general welfare involves sacrifice of self; and the straggles for liberty and country in other lauds are as worthy of study as those which are peculiarly American. The efforts of Poland, Hungary, and Ireland have not been failures because of temporary defeat. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
