CHAPTER IX CECIL JOHN EHODES: HIS IDEALS AND CHARACTER In sketching the career of Mr. Rhodes I have endeavoured to bring out his striking characteristics as the narrative proceeded, and to let the events themselves, the best of all interpreters, reveal the undercurrents of thought and purpose which shaped his life. I cannot conclude, however, without summarising what has been almost casually presented in following a history so full of great events and issues. It has been said that Cecil Rhodes somewhat resembled Napoleon, in the vastness of his conceptions as well as in some of his weaknesses. There seems some truth in the comparison, and it is quite possible, as we shall see, that the great French soldier had had some influence on the fortunes of Cecil Rhodes. His features indeed bore some resemblance to Napoleon's, but the face and figure were, if I may say so, of looser formation and not so closely knit. Perhaps the same remark may also apply to his genius and his habits of thought. But the comprehensive vision, the wide outlook, the genius for seeing below the surface of things, the vast organising power which not only took in all the elements of a great combination, but bent men and things to its achievement--these were characteristic of both. But there were great differences. Cecil Rhodes was no soldier, nor did he covet a soldier's methods. His connection with the Raid was an accident. He loved to take men, or "human beings," as he called them, with him, and by mesmeric persuasion to make them fellow-workers, sometimes, possibly, convenient tools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Right Honourable Cecil John Rhodes: A Monograph and a Reminiscence I have not attempted in this volume to give any detailed account Of Mr. Rhodes' life from childhood upwards. I have rather written a personal narrative Of his life and work, as they were associated with mine, in an intimacy Of many years, while at the same time I have given as complete an account and estimate Of his public career as the scheme of the book permitted. I have also Specially endeavoured to recall the best traditions of Mr. Rhodes' life, scarcely known to the general public, but cherished in the hearts Of his friends. If by any chance inaccuracies Of date or detail have crept in, I must ask the reader to remember that I write at a time Of life when memory is apt to fail, and also that I have had no opportunity Of verifying recollections by public records.
