DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The True Thomas Jefferson In a personal letter to the author of this volume, who had requested of the Democratic editor some prefatory words, Henry Watterson says: I do not like to see two names upon a title page. But I will say this: Though not a hero worshipper, I am too good a partisan to question my principal; and Jefferson has been not alone my file-leader, but a guiding star in my political firmament. I am used to measure all systems, to try all causes, to deter mine all policies, by the rules laid down in his philosophy. To me he stands out, after Washing ton and Franklin, the one clear figure in our early history, a perfect Doric column: wanting the bril liant levity of Hamilton; the sturdy, but narrow, spirit of Adams; sure-footed and far-seeing; not merely a statesman of the first order, but a very principal in the domain of original thinking and moral forces. The minor circumstances of his private life may interest me, but could in no wise change my perspective, because I am fixed in the belief that he was an upright and disinterested man, who considered his dutv to his country before all else. Such inconsistencies as appear in his career are but proofs of this, Since he never can wholly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Thomas Jefferson: A Little Journey Death is not a calamity per 36; nor is physical weakness necessarily a curse, for out of these seeming unkind con ditions, nature often distils her finest products. The dying injunction of a father may impress itself upon a son as no example of right living ever can, and the physical disability of a mother may be an influence that works for excellence and strength 3 The last expressed wish of Peter Jefferson was that his son should be well educated, and attain to a degree of useful man liness that the father had never been able to reach. And into the keeping of this fourteen-year-old youth the dying man, with the last flicker of his intellect, gave the mother, sisters, and baby brother.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, Vol. 14 As one glances around this room, one is prompted to say in the last words of John Adams, "Thomas Jefferson still survives." The spirit of the Great Commoner is abroad in the land, and a grateful nation pays its tribute to-night. That we may have a clear and lucid understanding of the immense influence exercised by Jefferson, not only in his own day, but upon all subsequent times, it is necessary to define his environment. Neither Washington, Jefferson nor Madison was of Virginia's elect, nor did they come from the landed aristocracy. Jefferson came upon the stage of active affairs at a time when Virginia was under the domination of a roystering, gambling, hoidenish aristocracy. The law of entail, the right of the first-born to inherit, and the established church confronted him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, Vol. 4 Peace being at length concluded with England, we had it also to conclude with them. They had made war on us without the least provocation or pretence of injury. They had added greatly to the cost of that war. They had insulted our feelihgs by their savage cruelties. They were by our arms completely subdued and humbled. Under all these circumstances, we had a right to demand substantial satisfaction and indemnification. We used that right, however, with real moderation. Their limits with us under the former government were generally ill defined, question able, and the frequent cause of war. Sincerely desirous of living in their peace, of cultivating it by every act of justice and friendship, and of rendering them better neighbors by introducing among them some of the most useful arts, it was necessary to begin by a precise definition of boundary. Acccordingly, at the treaties held with them, our mutual boundaries were settled; and notwithstanding our just right to concessions adequate to the cir cumstances of the case, we required such only as were incon siderable and for even these, in order that we might place them in a state of perfect conciliation, we paid them a valuable con sideration, and granted them annuities in money which have been regularly paid, and were equal to the prices for which they have usually sold their lands.
