Book Description
Excerpt from True Stories of Famous Men and Women of America for Young People: Containing Full Accounts of the Lives and Heroic Deeds of About Half a Hundred Illustrious Men and Women Who Have Made Our Country Great and Our Flag Respected Throughout the World It is the province Of these biographies not only to entertain by the narration of wonderful achievements, but to conduct the reader into the private lives and characters of these great men and women, to encourage and inspire, and by the force of example to awaken a spirit of emulation in the young. In these true sto ries of famous men and women we have a complete picture of their public and pri vate records woven skillfully together. The early lives of these illustrious charac ters with their humble environments - aye, Often discomforts, struggles and poverty - will find perfect counterparts in the circumstances and surroundings of many of our young readers. Here the ambitious but hampered youth will find their heroes and heroines have traveled the same roads which they themselves are now treading, and encountered and struggled with the same or similar difficul ties and temptations as those which they are now battling against. There is nothing so potent in its influence for good as the examples of truly great leaders. It would be hard to overestimate the power which the lives of Washington, Franklin, Frances Willard, and other noble men and women treated in this book have had in the past and will continue to have upon succeeding generations.
