Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of the Gluck Collection of Manuscripts and Autographs in the Buffalo Public Library James Fraser Gluck, who gave the Buffalo Library the manuscripts and autographs catalogued in this volume, was born at Niagara Falls, N. Y., April 28, 1852. He attended the common schools, Upper Canada College, at Toronto, and Cornell University, graduating from the latter in 1874. He studied law with Laning & Willett in Buffalo, and was admitted to the bar in 1876. July 15, 1877, he married Miss Effie D. Tyler, a daughter of Prof. Charles M. Tyler of Cornell. He was elected a trustee of Cornell in 1883, curator of the Buffalo Library in 1885, and trustee of the Grosvenor Library in the same year. He died at the Murray Hill Hotel, New York, December 15, 1897, in his forty-sixth year. This brief biographical sketch gives merely the dates of the principal events in Mr. Gluck's short life. He was an able and successful lawyer, a brilliant orator, a writer of authority on law subjects, and a man of great literary ability, culture and taste. He took an active part in every movement for the social and educational improvement of Buffalo. He was particularly interested in the founding of the Public Library, and his influence contributed largely to its establishment. It was in 1885 that Mr. Gluck first became interested in the collection of autographs and manuscripts. He was at that time a curator of the Buffalo Library. At a meeting of the Board of Trustees, Mr. Larned, the Superintendent of the library, called attention to the autograph manuscript of Robert Fulton, which was offered for sale in the catalogue of the London "Old Book-Dealer" at a moderate price.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed historian and bestselling author: a page-turning account of the epic struggle over slavery as embodied by John Brown and Abraham Lincoln—two men moved to radically different acts to confront our nation’s gravest sin. John Brown was a charismatic and deeply religious man who heard the God of the Old Testament speaking to him, telling him to destroy slavery by any means. When Congress opened Kansas territory to slavery in 1854, Brown raised a band of followers to wage war. His men tore pro-slavery settlers from their homes and hacked them to death with broadswords. Three years later, Brown and his men assaulted the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia, hoping to arm slaves with weapons for a race war that would cleanse the nation of slavery. Brown’s violence pointed ambitious Illinois lawyer and former officeholder Abraham Lincoln toward a different solution to slavery: politics. Lincoln spoke cautiously and dreamed big, plotting his path back to Washington and perhaps to the White House. Yet his caution could not protect him from the vortex of violence Brown had set in motion. After Brown’s arrest, his righteous dignity on the way to the gallows led many in the North to see him as a martyr to liberty. Southerners responded with anger and horror to a terrorist being made into a saint. Lincoln shrewdly threaded the needle between the opposing voices of the fractured nation and won election as president. But the time for moderation had passed, and Lincoln’s fervent belief that democracy could resolve its moral crises peacefully faced its ultimate test. The Zealot and the Emancipator is the thrilling account of how two American giants shaped the war for freedom.
