Book Description
Excerpt from History of the Wars of the French Revolution, From the Breaking Out of the War, in 1792, to the Restoration of a General Peace, in 1815, Vol. 1 of 4: Comprehending the Civil History of Great Britain and France, During That Period If time were measured by events, instead Of years, centuries might be said to have passed, during the age in which we live. To compress the records Of these transcendently important occurrences, Into a moderate compass; to narrate them in a connected and lucid order; and to furnish a memorial, not merely instruo tive and interesting to his contemporaries, but useful to the future historian, have been the primary Objects of the author's iabouis Awork undertaken with Snoh views, will, Of course, be'rather a record Of facts, than a medium of Opinions. The time indeed has not yet arrived, for exploring the secrets Of cabinets, or for developing the hidden springs, by which the principal actors in this mighty contest have been actuated. This is the work Of posterity, and can never be successfully accomplished, till time shall have shed his mellowing influence over the passions and feelings which still continue to agitate the present age. In presenting to the public the history Of the Wars arising out Of the French Revolution, the most scrupu lous regard has been had to fidelity Of representation. NO event has been suppressed, nor has any fact been distorted, to gratify the partiality, or to advance the interests Of a party. Truth has been the polar star by which the author has shaped his course and though he makes no pretensions to freedom from political pre dilection, he assumes perhaps a higher merit, when he declares, that in the prosecution Of this undertaking, he IS not conscious of having, In any instance, suffered his mind to be biased, or his narrative tinctured, by any thing approaching either to natlonal antipathies, or to party asperity.
