Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gambetta, Life and Letters Two women, Mme. Leonie Léon and Mme. Juliette Adam, claim to have tamed the lion amowreua: and taught him how to behave like a gentleman. The former was for ten years his faithful companion; his letters prove to us that in her he found encouragement before the battle and sweet consolation after he had sacrificed his all and received worse than nothing - ingratitude - in return. And yet we cannot help thinking that his position must have suffered from being unable to take her into society - that respectable, middle-class society with its rigid code of morals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gambetta When M. Louis Battifol asked me for a book on Gambetta, and expressed a desire that its publication should coincide with the signing of Peace, I felt it impossible to decline the honour. I wrote these pages during the rare moments of leisure allowed to me by my duties in the Chamber; and thus, in a certain sense, 1 lived through the two wars at one and the same time. I disregarded all panegyrics, all pamphlets, all legends, whether flattering or not: I sought the truth alone - and no homage could be greater. I have ignored the enthusiasms and hot-headed passions of our youth, and even the claims of gratitude - for it was Gambetta who launched me on the life of politics. In this book, only one passion is to be found: the passion for France. He loved her ardently. He gave his whole life for her. He will live in history as the personification of the nation's resistance in 1870. IT is ideal was always the regeneration of his country. His memory is for ever associated with the restoration of justice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gambetta: And the Foundation of the Third Republic In the year 1818 Baptista Gambetta, a Genoese of the village of Celle-Ligure, near Savona, resolved to leave his native coast and settle in the interior of France. He came of a race of seamen who for generations had traded across the Gulf of Lyons with cargoes of macaroni, oil, and pottery. But the loss of a brother in a storm had filled him with disgust of the sea, and though he was minded to return home in later life and to die with the sound of her waves in his ears, he determined to give his sons the chance of lives beyond the range of her caprices. His choice fell on Cahors, a famous old town lying about a bend of the river Lot, some seventy miles north of Toulouse. The place had lost much of the ancient prosperity along with which it had acquired, as a line in Dante reminds us, its harsh medieval reputation for usury, but was still a flourishing market centre, and Baptista Gambetta must have had frequent business relations with it. Thither he transferred himself with his family - three boys, of whom the youngest, Joseph, was only four years old - and on the edge of the market square opened a shop, the Bazar Genois, for the sale of groceries and pottery which he had formerly handled as freight. The family tradition sent the boy Joseph to sea. When ten years old he sailed as cabin boy on a French ship bound for Valparaiso.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Mrs. Jeanette H. Platt That she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her. There are those who, though dwelling in the shadow, look ever into the sunshine. Earthly vicissitudes do not disturb their joy. To them decay and death suggest only the burgeoning of a new spring, and the promise of an ever-recurring life. Of such was she whose life is commemorated in these pages, illustrating her own words, We may always see through tears a bow of promise in every cloud that darkens our way. To this happy temperament, united with rare personal attractions, she added an unfaltering trust in her heavenly Father. Thus was formed the substratum of a character and life worthy of all imita tion. More worthy, more beautiful, perhaps, because found in that sphere of comparative seclusion which is bounded by the domestic and social relations of life. Though her distinguished qualities brought her into intercourse with eminent persons, the fact that her career was not public will render the secrets of her success more welcome to the large majority of women whose lives lie in the retirement of private life. After arriving at a responsible age, in the varied relations of daughter, wife, mother, and friend, we find her always the burden bearer. In these pages those similarly situated will be thankful to learn the way and spirit in which she carried these burdens, and how she walked beside the sad and weary with words of cheer and of comfort.
