Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life in the Open Air, and Other Papers "This composite people may, in its wide realm, attain to the most varied splendor of success in all pursuits that can make its future rich, refined, noble, and happy. But let us not forget that our march must be sustained by a hearty devotion to the true principles of freedom. If we fail of public or private duty, - if we cleave to any national wrong, - this great experiment of mankind will fail, and our life corrupt away, through slow decaying, to dishonorable death." In that faith Theodore Winthrop wrote and fought, - he lived and died. The portrait in this volume is engraved from Mr. Rowse's crayon likeness of the author, drawn from life a few years since. The wood-cut of Katahdin is copied from an original sketch in oil by Mr. Church. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
