Synopsis
Excerpt from Welcome to Goldwin Smith, Regius Professor of Modern History in the University of Oxford, England
Herbert said religion was on tiptoe to pass from England to America; but we would not have it literally true, even with respect to a religious love of liberty. Our friend will tell this to Englishmen, and tell them, too, that we mean to be worthy of our sires. He sees us here, to-day, animated with this resolve but, I must remind him that he sees a rem nant only: as was once said to me in a beautiful New England village Ah, sir! The best of us are under ground. We hope to labour as we can for a country which has been preserved to us by so much of the best blood of the Nation; but, we must never forget that they are the nobler and truer Americans who have gone into the field, under a solemn sense of duty, and devoted their young lives and all that men hold dear on earth, in behalf of liberty, in support of law, and for the good of the human race.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book documents a complimentary breakfast held for Professor Goldwin Smith. His visit to the States coincided with the 1864 presidential election, during the Civil War, where he witnessed Abraham Lincoln's reelection. The breakfast became a celebration of this momentous event and a platform for attendees to express their belief in the Union cause and their gratitude for England's support. The author presents a wealth of speeches given by prominent figures of the time, including Horace Greeley, William Cullen Bryant, and George Bancroft, which touch on the complex political and social issues of the day, reflecting the ideological divides of the Civil War and the struggle for a more just and equitable society. This book captures a significant moment in American history through the lens of those directly involved, providing valuable insights into the challenges and triumphs of the era.
