After such solemn assur anecs, why doubt his honour? Towards the end of October, 1848, when he became candidate for the Presi dency, he called on one living at no. 37, Rue de la Tour d'auvergne, to Whom he said: AS I have been calumniated, I now come to give you an explanation. DO you think me mad enough to venture a Napoleon's career? There are two fit models for a man Of great am bition to be found in Napoleon and Washington, one representing genius and the other virtue. TO say you will be a genius is absurd, but to state you will act as a man of honour is an honest confession. How much of this depends on our own free will? To be a genius? No. To be an upright man? Yes. To instil genius into ourselves is impossible; but to act honourably is quite possible. DO you consider me mad enough to renew the Napoleonic era by one thing only, - crime? That would be a mighty ambition certainly. The Re public is established, and as I am not a great man, I Shall not attempt to imitate Napoleon; but as I am an honourable man, I shall take Washington as a model The name of Bonaparte shall twice be inscribed in the history Of France; the first with crime and feats of glory, the second with integrity and honour. The latter will avail doubtless far more than the former. Why? Because Napoleon may have been the greater, but Wash ington is the better man; and I prefer being a good Citizen to a guilty hero. So much for my ambition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-03-24 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famous Crimes the World Forgot Volume II uncovers more amazing true crimes that exploded into the national news, shocking Americans from coast to coast-crimes that were eventually forgotten-until now. Each one of these stories transports you back to the time they happened, propels you through all the suspense-filled developments, and explores each one with an in-depth look into the actions of humans so evil, it's hard to believe they were real. They include: a serial poisoner who laughed when thought he got away with murdering a brother and sister, but cried when he was arrested; a woman with a history of being robbed by two men until the third time it happened when they killed her husband, or so she said; a mail-order bride lured to her death 3,000 miles away by a man with a wife and five children; a serial-rapist and possible serial-killer who murdered two sisters on their way to church; a five-time loser turned drifter who gunned down four men for $40 inside a hermit's shack; an escaped convict turned serial-killer with a taste for red-heads; the mysterious car bomb murder of a wealthy Texas socialite which churned up a cast of sordid characters who captivated an audience for what was America's first live-televised murder trial; and Milwaukee's first serial-killer who stabbed young girls with a seven-inch stiletto.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The following work is the substance of various speculations, that occasionally amused the author, and enlivened his leisure-hours. It is not intended for the learned; they are above it: nor for the vulgar; they are below it. It is intended for men, who, equally removed from the corruption of opulence, and from the depression of bodily labour, are bent on useful knowledge; who, even in the delirium of youth, feel the dawn of patriotism, and who in riper years enjoy its meridian warmth. To such men this work is dedicated; and that they may profit by it, is the author's ardent wish, and probably will be while any spirit remains in him to form a wish"--Preface.

This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children of almost any age can break the law, but at what age should children first face the possibility of criminal responsibility for their alleged crimes? This work is the first global analysis of national minimum ages of criminal responsibility (MACRs), the international legal obligations that surround them, and the principal considerations for establishing and implementing respective age limits. Taking an international children's rights approach, with a rich theoretical framework and the vitality of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, this work maintains a critical perspective, such as in challenging the assumptions of many children's rights scholars and advocates. Compiling the age limits and statutory sources for all countries, this book explains the broad historical origins behind most of them, identifying the recurring practical challenges that affect every country and providing the first comprehensive evidence that a general principle of international law requires all nations, regardless of their treaty ratifications, to establish respective minimum age limits.
