I have sought to give its salient events in such a manner that the essential characteristics of the man might be brought out, and his qual ities as an author thereby explained. De tailed criticism of his works has been shunned, as contrary to the plan, the scope, of the biography existing contributions of that kind are ample and authoritative. At the same time such estimates of Whittier' 8 poetry have been given as shall make plain his development of character and explain his important position in American letters.

Uncle Rawson says he has had much to try his temper 5 that there have been many and sore difficulties in Church as well as State 5 and he hath bitter enemies, in some of the mem bers of the General Court, who count him too severe with the Quakers and other disturbers and ranters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Greenleaf Whittier: His Life and Work To my American friends I feel a word of apology is due for my writing of Whittier without having visited their great Continent. This has not been possible owing to pressure of work, and I must ask them to allow my love for their poet, and for the American people, to overshadow the blemishes that I fear they may discover. I have endeavoured to portray what manner of man Whittier was; his poetic genius, the way in which he met difficulties, financial and otherwise, the sacrifice he made for those whom he loved, the abandon ment of all ambition for the cause of freedom, and the genuine humility and sense of humour which sweetened all his years. As a Quaker, he believed in the Divine Immanence. He believed that God's voice can be heard in all hearts who will be obedient, and his obedience produced his life.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Greenleaf Whittier: His Life, Genius, and Writings If ever in modern days the character of the apostle John has been reproduced among men it was in John G. Whittier. See with what sweetness and meekness the shy and loving Quaker moved through the ranks of society in times of peace and prosperity, and with what an adamantine boldness and bravery he stood up before the mob in Philadelphia when his types and manuscripts were scattered, his printing office burned and himself threatened with personal violence by the foes of human equality and freedom. Did he quail before the storm? Not he. Did he abandon his prin ciples and retire from the arena? Oh, no; no more than did the apostle John the apostle of love forsake his Christian faith when the persecutors im mersed him in boiling oil and exiled him to a desert island in the [egean Sea.
