Bag om Select Speeches Of Daniel Webster

Select Speeches of Daniel Webster is a collection of some of the most famous and influential speeches delivered by American statesman and orator Daniel Webster. This book includes speeches on a variety of important topics, such as the Constitution, slavery, and the Union. Webster's eloquent and powerful speeches helped shape the course of American history and politics during the mid-19th century. This collection is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, politics, or public speaking.Gentlemen, it is a most extraordinary case. In some respects, it has hardly a precedent anywhere; certainly none in our New England history. This bloody drama exhibited no suddenly excited, ungovernable rage. The actors in it were not surprised by any lion-like temptation springing upon their virtue, and overcoming it, before resistance could begin. Nor did they do the deed to glut savage vengeance, or satiate long-settled and deadly hate. It was a cool, calculating, money-making murder.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
