Excerpt from Memoirs of Dr. Robert Blakey, Professor of Logic and Metaphysics, Queens's College, Belfast Men of the times. He was a man to whom, to use his own words, the love of knowledge was not only a cold sentiment, but a positive passion from his earliest recollection. Devoting himself to the pursuit of knowledge from his earliest years, he seems to have read with avidity everything that came in his way, until, his mind taking a philosophical bent, he settled down to the mastery of mental and political science. For this purpose he ransacked the libraries of London, Paris, and Brussels. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
