Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Case for Liberty In the early months of 1916 I wrote a book entitled The Decline of Liberty in England. It was composed in illness and in a period of acute anxiety about causes and individuals. Like many others I then feared that even if the Central Powers were defeated the British Empire would by victory be converted to Prussian ideals. Yet to-day as I write these words the Central Powers are defeated and the Allies are laying the foundations of international peace. In 1916 it was difficult to write of liberty except in the sentimental manner of John Stuart Mill. War and fear of war have necessarily always been the worst enemies of liberty.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Liberty There is still one other point: you will notice that while the oppress ors have carried out their plans, and had things their own way, there were other forces silently at work, which in time undermined their plans, as if a Divine hand were directing the counter-plan. Whoever peruses the Story of Liberty without recognizing this feature will fail of fullv comprehending the meaning of history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Little Daughter of Liberty Three rides are memorable in the early his tory of the Revolution. One is the well-known ride of Paul Revere, who, on.the night of April 18, 177 5, warned the country about Boston of the intended British raid on the morrow. Less Celebrated in verse and story, but equally worthy of commemoration, was the ride of Caesar Rodney, who, on July second of the same year, rode from Dover, Delaware, to Philadelphia to carry Delaware's vote in favour of the Declaration of Independence, covering the distance of eighty miles in thirty hours. Early in November, I 775, a young English serving boy rode from the headquarters of the provincial army at Cambridge to Kennebunk, Maine, in less than thirty-six hours. Untold in verse or story, its record preserved only in family papers, or as a dim tradition of the Maine coast, the ride of Anthony Severn was no less heroic in its action and memorable in its consequences.

Download or read book Land and Liberty Classic Reprint written by Laurence Ginnell and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land and Liberty It seems that an Irishman writing for the public on a matter of social politics is expected to be more mindful of British opinion than of his subject. Why should people trouble themselves reading what he has to say unless he omits unpleasant truths and says only what pleases them, when they can find more interesting matter in "Three Days on a Jaunting Car," by Mr. Tourist or Mr. Journalist, who knows everything so much better? These gentlemen are free from our miserable limitations of truth, and have the inestimable advantage of blank minds, being in some matters not prejudiced but securely ensconced beyond the reach of fact, and determined, so far as they are determined about anything, to learn only what they like and state only what pleases their readers. Then, too, many of the readers who prefer fiction to truth in relation to Ireland would not care, and some of them would be distinctly pleased if Ireland and all her people and concerns were sunk in the Atlantic Ocean. If the truth may be told without offence, this book is written by one who does not wish it to fall into the hands of any such people. It might displease them; and although that is no part of its purpose, the degree in which it displeased them might be a measure of its correctness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New England's Struggles for Religious Liberty No people in their beginnings have left richer or more abundant materials for veritable history than have the Pilgrim and Puritan fathers of New England. And it is a matter of rejoicing that a fresh popular interest in our Colonial times has been awakened in recent years. An indication of this interest is plainly seen in such writings as those of S. G. and S. A. Drake, of Charles F. and Brooks Adams, of Prof. John Fiske, of Alice Morse Earle, and of several other recent writers. The "Margaret Winthrop," by Mrs. Earle, especially, has much authentic and interesting historic material. The original and chief sources from which our work is drawn are, of course, given in the body of the text and need not be mentioned here. If allowed to particularize, however, I should say that perhaps, in a considerable part of my work, nothing has been more interestingly helpful to me than the treasures of the library of the "Backus Historical Society," in Newton Center, and of the Massachusetts Archives, in the State House in Boston.

It was attempted in two ways. First, by obtaining a recognition of certain immunities, called political liberties or rights, which it was to be regarded as a breach of duty in the ruler to infringe, and which if he did infringe, specific resistance, or general rebellion, was held to be justifiable. A second, and generally a later ex pedient, was the establishment of constitutional checks, by which the consent of the community, or of a body of some sort, supposed to represent its interests, was made a necessary condition to some of the more important acts of the governing power. To the first of these modes of limitation, the ruling power, in most European countries, was compelled, more or less, to submit. It was not so with the.

This state of affairs puzzles the politicians, and as they toss about in their little canoes upon the sea of public opinion, many of them are hoisting their sails to catch a breeze which no longer exists, and in a condition of agitated imbecility are peering about the horizon wondering which way the wind blows; some are even demented enough to think they can fill their sails with their own feeble breath, and are puff ing away like mad in ludicrous imitation of the storm that has gone by.

It is a fascinating as well as an important undertaking to trace the gradual evolution of modern liberty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Milton and Liberty Milton's political writings possess more than a biographical value - they have a message for our own time. The more democracy spreads the more it is to be desired that the people should be so inspired and guided that they will make a noble use of their freedom. Such inspiration and guidance are found pre-eminently in Milton. The people who follow his doctrine of liberty will make more of duties than of rights, and value rights mainly as the means of performing duties. They will use their power, not to compete with one another for material well-being or any private advantage, but for mutual service and the common good. Without such an ideal, democracy will only, as Mazzini has said, produce egotists who will carry the old passions and desires into.

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.
