Book Description
Excerpt from Stephen Arnold Douglas The ten years Of American history from 1850 to 1860 have a fascination second only to that of the four years which followed. Indeed, unless one has a taste for military science, it is a question whether the great war itself is more absorbing than the great debate that led up to it; whether even Gettysburg and Chickamauga, the March to the Sea, the Wilderness, Appomattox, are of more surpassing interest than the dramatic political changes, the downfall Of the Whig party, the swift rise and the equally swift submergence Of the know-nothing party, the birth of the Republican party, the disruption and overthrow Of the long-domi nant Democratic party, through which the.

Excerpt from Eulogy of Hon. Stephen Arnold Douglas, One of the Regents of the Smithsonian Institution In accordance with the usage heretofore observed in similar cases, a resolution having been adopted directing the preparation for the proceedings of the Board of Regents, of a sketch of the characteristics and incidents of his life, and the duty of furnishing this havmg been assigned to me, I address myself to the task with an earnestness that is only tempered by my fear that I have not sufficient time or sufficient ability to do full justice to the memory of one whom I admired as a public man, and sincerely loved as a friend.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of Stephen A. Douglas It is due to candor to state that these pages have been prepared without having been submitted to Mr. Douglas, who, if he read them at all, will do so for the first time after the issue of the book. They have been written by one who agrees fully with Mr. Douglas in political views, and who, since the passage of the kansas-nebraska Act, has been engaged in maintaining before the people of Illinois the wisdom, justice, and expediency of the policy of the Democratic party upon the question of Slavery in the Ter ritories. With these words of explanation the book is submitted to those who may choose to read it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Life of Stephen A. Douglas I have derived this narrative mainly from orig inal sources. The biography written during his life time by his friend Sheahan, and that published two years after his death by his admirer, Flint, are chiefly drawn on for the brief account of his early life. The history of his career in Congress has been gathered from the Congressional Record; the account of Conventions from contemporary reports, and the Debates with Lincoln from the authorized publication. I have not consciously taken any liberty with any text quoted, except to omit superfluous words, which omissions are indicated by asterisks. I have not attempted to pronounce judgment on Douglas or his contemporaries, but to submit the evidence. Not those who write, but those who read', pass final judgment on the heroes of biography.
