Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Lafayette in America Not many years since I knew familiarly an old lady nearing her centenary who had seen and been blessed by Lafayette. In her quavering voice she would repeat the lines she and her schoolmates had recited on the day when the distinguished Frenchman, in his sixty-seventh year, had driven through her New Jersey village. Her eyes would kindle as she related the particulars of his reception, the triumphal arch which the village people had quickly reared when it was known he would come their way, the flowers the children plucked to throw in his path, the excitement of the minister who was chosen to address him.

Book Synopsis Lafayette, the Friend of American Liberty (Classic Reprint) by : Alma Holman Burton
Download or read book Lafayette, the Friend of American Liberty (Classic Reprint) written by Alma Holman Burton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lafayette, the Friend of American Liberty The story of the Marquis de Lafayette forms one of the most interesting chapters in the history of human liberty. To understand clearly the nature of Lafayette's services, both to America and to the whole world, we must first think of the conditions of life at the beginning of his career, and then contrast them with those which now prevail. One hundred and forty years ago, when Lafayette was a child, the world was not so pleasant a place to live in as it is in our own time. Even in the most enlight ened countries of Europe, the majority of the people were downtrodden and oppressed. Men had scarcely so much as heard of liberty. Outside of England and her colonies, the idea of popular freedom was unknown. This idea, as you may have learned elsewhere, seems to have been a sort of birthright of the anglo-saxon race. Ever since the barons of England forced King John to grant them a charter of rights, the peoples of that race have defended and cherished it. Like 'a spark of fire in the midst of gen eral gloom, it has oftentimes been almost extinguished; and yet, no matter how its enemies have tried to pstamp it out, it has survived and been rekindled.

It is sober history; yet if the bare facts it tells were set forth without the connecting links, its preface might be made to look like the plot of a dime novel. It is the story of a poor boy who inherited great wealth; who ran away from home to fight for liberty and glory; who became a major-general before he was twenty years old; who knew every nook and corner of the palace at Versailles, yet was the blood brother of American Indians; who tried vainly to save the lives of his king and queen; who was in favor of law, yet remained a rebel to the end of his days; who suffered an unjust imprisonment which has well been called' 'a night five years iong who was twice practically Dictator of France; and who, in his old age, was called upon to make a great decision.
