Book Description
Excerpt from The Select Speeches of the Right Hon. Henry Grattan: To Which Is Added His Letter on Union Few things are more calculated to give pleasure to those interested in the welfare of our country, than the rapid progress which education has made amongst the people within the last few years. In order to meet the demand for works on Ireland, it has been proposed to publish "The Irish Library," which will contain a selection from our classic orators and writers; - with original Memoirs of our most celebrated countrymen. The undertaking will also comprise re-publications of works meriting preservation, and difficult to be procured. The editing of the various works composing "The Irish Library," has been entrusted to gentlemen of different politics, but who are united in love for their country, and in desire to serve her. Thus, though differing in many serious points from the eloquent writer of the interesting Memoir of Curran (published in this series) I have been glad to co-operate with those who have started the present undertaking. In the Memoir of Grattan, prefixed to this volume, I have confined myself to indicating the growth of his character and genius, to commenting on the most important crisis of his life, concluding with a general review of his career, and with some plain remarks on the inestimable value of his example. I might have gone seriatim through all the facts of his life; but, within the limited space assigned to me, there would have been room for scarcely more than a meagre abridgment of his biography. The course I have adopted seemed to be more useful. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
