Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles Bradlaugh, Vol. 1: A Sketch of His Life and Work During the past four or five years her sympathies have led her to take views of the remedies for social misery in which I cannot concur; and she has found guidance to a mysticism which seems to me unsound and unreal. But of this I am sure, that, with Lessing, she always seeks for truth, and will never hesitate, whatever the personal consequence, to proclaim in turn each truth she thinks she has found. This Character Sketch, written by her when the grave had but closed over Mr. Bradlaugh, does not profess to be an impartial summing up of his life's work. Partisan journalists of the baser sort have done their worst for years to defile this man's name, and to represent him as a kind of unclean Yahoo, full of blasphemy and sedition. Mrs. Besant's picture, painted from life, comes as a useful corrective to the malignant attacks of bigoted opponents. No doubt Mr. Bradlaugh said very much that was painful, even revolting, to the reverent mind. But what Christian is there who, on reading over the shameful story of intolerance with which Mr. Bradlaugh was treated, does not feel that the responsibility for much that was most deplorable in Mr. Bradlaugh's teaching, lies at the door, not of the Freethinker, but of the un-Christlike Christian of our time. That this resolute soul lived and died doing so much good work for the poor and the oppressed, although without the conscious inspiration of Christianity, should surely not be reckoned so much a reproach to him as to those blind leaders of the blind, whose bigotry and stupidity drove him outside the fold.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Biography of Charles Bradlaugh The innate respect that all Englishmen bear towards anyone who unmistakably displays exceptional perseverance, integrity, and courage, is my reason for presenting to the public a biography of Chaŕles Bradlaugh. That he possesses these great qualities, those who read the incidents of his life will scarcely be able to deny. While his opinions must of necessity excite the most energetic opposition in many quarters, there is every reason to hope that all parties will ultimately acknowledge his personal merits. It is these qualities and the varied events of his life that I have attempted to describe; and in the hope that the book may be welcome to friend and foe alike, I have carefully avoided the introduction of controversial dissertations. Of course it is notorious that Bradlaugh is in religious questions an Atheist, in social questions a Malthusian, and in politics a Republican.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a 2-volume record of life and work of the English political activist Charles Bradlaugh (1833-1891), written by his daughter, that features his parliamentary struggle, politics and teachings. Bradlaugh was an advocate of trade unionism, republicanism, and universal suffrage, and he opposed socialism. His anti-socialism was divisive, and many secularists who became socialists left the secularist movement because of its identification with Bradlaugh's liberal individualism. He was a supporter of Irish Home Rule, and backed France during the Franco-Prussian War. In 1880, he was elected as the Liberal MP for Northampton. His attempt to affirm as an atheist ultimately led to his temporary imprisonment, fines for voting in the Commons illegally, and a number of by-elections at which he regained his seat on each occasion. Bradlaugh was finally allowed to take an oath in 1886. Eventually, a parliamentary bill which he proposed became law in 1888 which allowed members of both Houses of Parliament to affirm, if they so wished, when being sworn in. The new law resolved the issue for witnesses in civil and criminal court cases._x000D_ Part I:_x000D_ Parentage and Childhood_x000D_ Youth_x000D_ Army Life_x000D_ Marriage_x000D_ Hyde Park Meetings, 1855_x000D_ Early Lectures and Debates_x000D_ A Clerical Libeller_x000D_ The "National Reformer" and the Government Prosecutions_x000D_ Italy_x000D_ Platform Work, 1860-1861_x000D_ "Kill the Infidel"_x000D_ Debates, 1860-1866_x000D_ The Reform League, 1866-1868_x000D_ Provincial Lecturing, 1866-1869_x000D_ Ireland_x000D_ Northampton, 1868_x000D_ Southwark Election, 1869_x000D_ Litigation, 1867-1871_x000D_ Lectures, 1870-1871_x000D_ France – the War_x000D_ The Commune, and After_x000D_ A Dozen Debates_x000D_ Republicanism and Spain_x000D_ First Visit to America_x000D_ Two Northampton Elections, 1874…_x000D_ In the United States Again_x000D_ The Prosecution of Mr Bradlaugh and Mrs Besant_x000D_ An Unimportant Chapter_x000D_ More Debates_x000D_ Some Later Lectures_x000D_ The "Watch" Story_x000D_ Peace Demonstrations, 1878_x000D_ The National Secular Society…_x000D_ Part II (by John M.
