Book Description
Excerpt from Famous American Statesmen Orators, Past and Present, Vol. 1: With Biographical Sketches and Their Famous Orations "Oratory," said Abraham Lincoln, "is the great power that moves nations to do and dare; it was oratory that wrecked Rome and made Christianity live." None of our public men better understand the power of oratory than did Lincoln, and he estimated it from its highest plane. He would not have been a great orator in Rome when Roman people were swayed by the impassioned eloquence of their orators to deify to-day and crucify to-morrow, but he was one of the greatest of American orators of the rare type that always appeals to the considerate judgment of mankind. The power of the impassioned oratory that swayed the ancients in the days of Demosthenes has been impaired by the growing in culture and thoughtfulness of the people of all nations. There are occasions when it is yet most appropriate and impressive, but they are rare. It at times asserts itself in great trials in our courts of justice, but its impressions speedily perish, unless they appeal to some enduring human sympathy. Senator Depew truthfully says, "Eloquence is the master element in politics," but political oratory in this country, like the political oratory of every other civilized country of the world, has materially changed in its most effective attributes. In the days of Thomas Corwin of Ohio, and Sargent S. Prentiss of Mississippi, the political orator was the sole dependence of political parties. The newspaper was then a luxury and did not reach the masses of the people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Famous American Statesmen Orators, Past and Present, Vol. 5 of 6: With Biographical Sketches and Their Famous Orations It is good for us to commemorate this homespun past Of ours; good in these days Of reckless and swag gering prosperity, to remind ourselves how poor our fathers were, and that we celebrate them because for themselves and their children they chose wisdom and understanding and the things that are Of God rather than any other riches. This is our Founder's Day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Famous American Statesmen and Orators, Past and Present, Vol. 4 of 6: With Biographical Sketches and Their Famous Orations What a happy conception, then, was it for Congress to apply this simple rule, that the will of the majority shall govern, to the settlement of the question of domestic slavery in the Territories! Congress is neither to legislate slavery into any Territory or State, nor to exclude it therefrom, but to leave the people thereof perfectly free to form and regulate their domestic institutions in their own way, subject only to the Constitution of the United States.
