Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of John Bright How clear-cut is the sturdy image evoked by those two blunt Saxon syllables, 'John Bright!' Once the rallying-cry of the masses seeking enfranchisement - the trump of doom to Whig and Tory in possession - the name in memory has since become the symbol of an honest man in politics, of a strong, kind face framed in venerable white hair. But to no one have the words 'John Bright' ever suggested change or hesitation, sophistry or self-interest. His views of peace and war, of Church and State, of trade and freedom, the same throughout the half-century of his public life, are as limpid and resistant as a block of crystal. If the language in which he set them forth to his countrymen often surpassed the more elaborate orations of his great compeers, it was by reason of a strong simplicity, learnt neither in academies nor senates, but springing direct from man's common experience on earth, and reaching thence straight upwards into the sphere of faultless and noble literature. His voice had a bell-like clearness; in the largest hall he never strained, and scarcely seemed to raise it. The sound of it was music and poetry. He was singular among orators for his absence of gesture: there he stood foursquare, and sometimes half raised his arm. His oncoming was as the surge of the full swollen tide, not of the sea in storm; he awed his listeners by the calm of his passion, a terrible steed restrained by a yet stronger hand. Thus he uttered his plain man's prophecy to his fellow-citizens, bidding them keep the paths of peace and freedom, righteousness and good sense, when statesmen and diplomats led them, as ever, astray. He flattered no one, great or small, man or woman, in politics or in private life, but always spoke his thought. 'Thou must not mind all the fault John finds with thee, ' wrote his sister, as he makes no scruple to say the very worst he can to our faces.

Download or read book Life and Times of John Bright (Classic Reprint) written by William Robertson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Times of John Bright The first edition of this work was published in 1877. Its success induced the author to extend his researches and to issue a new and greatly enlarged edition six years later. His qualifications for such a task were an enthusiastic admiration for Bright, an unwearied patience in the collection of his material, and residence in Bright's neighbourhood, which enabled him to consult his hero's early associates. The book, however, was so encumbered with detail that it has been found necessary to reduce it for the present edition. Nothing of moment is omitted, and as far as possible the characteristic features of the work have been preserved. As the last edition was published six years before Bright's death the present editor has added a brief supplementary chapter continuing the story to the end. The value of the work is increased by 3. Prelude consisting of Mr. Birrell's address at Rochdale on the occasion of the celebration of Bright's Centenary last November.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Public Letters of John Bright I think it necessary to state, in justice to Mr. Bright, that he is in no degree responsible for the publication of this volume. He has, it is true, given his consent to it, but so far from his having originated the work in any way, the collection was made and completed before any communication on the subject was made 'to him. Appreciation of the style and contents of the letters, and regard for the character and services of Mr. Bright, have led to the production of the book, and' it is given to the world in the belief that it will prove an acceptable addition to the literature of the country; comprising, as it does, the written declarations of one Who is confessedly a master of the English language, and containing ideas which have helped to mould the political thought of a nation.

This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Bright and the Party of Peace, Retrenchment, and Reform This Volume is not, in the ordinary sense of the term, a biography. Mr. Bright's life has been comparatively uneventful, so far as the general public is concerned in knowing or inquiring into it; and the reasons which in any case impose silence or reserve upon one who traces the career of an eminent man during his lifetime apply with special force in this instance. In the House of Commons and on the platform Mr. Bright has freely lifted the veil from his thoughts, his motives of action, his political and even his religious belief, so that as a statesman and orator we seem to know him better than any other man of the century. But beyond these limits he is less known; and it is his privilege to be so. He has been characteristically a man of the people - loving, as he said at the moment when he was invited to enter Mr. Gladstone's first Cabinet, to remain among his own people.

This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Speeches of the Right Honourable John Bright, M. P, Vol. 2 of 1 The publication of this work brings to completion a task which I have long been desirous of accomplishing. That task, although laborious, has been congenial, and I trust that the result of my labour will not go altogether unappreciated by the English-speaking race at home and abroad. My object was to compile full and adequate accounts of the public career and speeches of the greatest Liberal statesman and the greatest Liberal orator of the nineteenth century. Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright stand as public men in a position so exceptional, that no apology is needed for relating the story of their lives while they are still amongst us, especially as I do not of course presume to pass judgment upon their labours and character. Indeed, in this respect I attempt less of formal criticism than may be discovered in the leading reviews and newspapers. It has been rather my desire to collect for the reader accurate and exhaustive materials upon which he may base his own political, personal, and historical estimates. The great favour with which the public and the press have received the biography of Mr. Gladstone, encouraged me to proceed with the life of Mr. Bright, which may be regarded as a companion work to its predecessor. In the history of Liberalism during our own generation, Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright have been complementary forces.

This book was released on 2016-11-28 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Speeches of the Right Honourable John Bright, M. P, Vol. 5 I have been reading lately a great number of letters which were addressed to me by my dear friend Mr. Cobden during our long friendship, and I have read also a journal consisting of memoranda narrating what took place in Paris when he was there negotiating the Commercial Treaty with France. He had to try to persuade the Emperor Napoleon to follow the example of this country with regard to the reduction of import duties, and the establishment of something like freedom of trade. He told the Emperor how great the benefits had been of the policy of Sir Robert Peel, and how great was the regard and reverence felt for Sir Robert. The Emperor said that he should be charmed and attered if he could think it possible that he could do things of a kind which would be so good for his country. (hear, hear.) But, he added, it is very difficult in France, In England you make reforms, in France we make revolutions. (hear, hear.) Now, observe, the Emperor was a man who had lived in this country for years; he had watched the working of public opinion and of our institutions from the retirement of his exile and afterwards, for nearly twenty years, he watched them from the lofty stage of the Imperial throne. And that was his judgment that was the statement which he made to one of the foremost Englishmen, represent ing much of English Opinion, sent by the English Government to negotiate with him the great Treaty of Commerce. But I believe - that there is not a thoughtful statesman in any civilised country in the world who would not join with the Emperor in express ing his admiration of the manner in which the people of this country, for the last forty years, have worked out such substantial reforms in their legislation and our own experience brings us to the same conclusion. (cheers) Those men are in error who tell you nothing has been done, and that all remains to be done. Those men are not less in error who tell you that what has been done is evil, and that it is evil to do anything more. What you should do is to act upon the principles and rules of past years, steadily advancing in favour of questions which the public has thoroughly discussed, which it thoroughly comprehends, and which Parliament can honestly and conscientiously put into law. For my part, looking back over these forty years, I feel some little sense of comfort. But it does not in the least degree lessen - ou the contrary, it rather adds to and strengthens-my hope for the future. (cheers) The history of the last forty years of this country, judged fairly - I speak of its legislation - is mainly a history of the conquests of freedom. (hear, hear.) It will be a grand volume that tells the story and your name and mine, if I mistake not, will be found in some of its pages. For me, the final chapter is now writing, -it may be already written No, - but for you, this great constituency, you have a perpetual youth and a perpetual future. I pray Heaven that in the years to come, when my voice is hushed, you may be granted strength, and moderation, and wisdom to in uence the counsels of your country by righteous means, for none other than noble and righteous ends.'
