This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exposure of the Attack on Lord Cockburn's "Memorials" In the first half of the first sentence, this candid friend, it will be seen, contrives utterly to condemn both of Lord Cockburn's works; and in the second half he mildly explains that he does not mean to charge these utter failures on any thing but want of judgment. Well, it might have been worse - it might have been, for instance, want of fidelity to friends, to principles, or to truth. Then mark the peculiar reason for the Memorials having been universally read and admired, and the peculiar instance by which that reason is supported - the Law Reviewer knew a person of great learning and eminence, that loved to read the Court Guide, and it must be on the same principle that the whole public have loved to read one of the most genial, humorous, and picturesque books that ever was written.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Henry the Fifth, King of England The three several memoirs of Henry the Fifth, King of England, printed in the present Volume, for the first time, are in themselves sufficiently valuable and interesting to deserve some attention at the hands of the future historian; while an additional interest, perhaps, is lent to them by the juxtaposition in which they are placed. Though professing to give an account of the actions, motives, and career of the same personage, they do so from wholly different points of view; and they respectively reveal to us the character of one of the most popular monarchs in English History, under aspects so widely dissimilar, that it is almost with difficulty - so far, at all events, as the first and third of these works are concerned - an uninformed or superficial reader would recognize in them the portrait of one and the same individual.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.
