Synopsis
Excerpt from Fortune of the Republic: Lecture Delivered at the Old South Church, March 30
Our sleepy civilization, ever since Roger Bacon and Monk Schwartz invented gun powder, has built its whole art of war, all fortification by land and sea, all drill and military education, on that one compound, all is an extension Of a gun-barrel,-and is very scornful about bows and arrows, and reckons Greeks and Romans and Middle Ages little better than Indians and bow-and arrow times. As if the earth, water, gases, lightning and caloric had not a million ener gies, the discovery Of any one of which could change the art Of war again, and put an end to war by the exterminating forces man can apply.
