Book synopsis

Excerpt from The Examples of the Revolution Thursday, the Fourth day of July, 1776, was a day of grave, of solemn, as well as of exciting interest. It was a small company of thoughtful, anxious men - not a crowd such as now fills the Capitol - which on that day was assembled in the old State House in Philadelphia. They were men of boldness and decision, of determination and courage, but they were Men; men of deep-rooted, hereditary attachment to England and the English throne, men of families and of property; men of high honor; not actuated by selfish ambition; not seeking political independence from faction or for personal gain. All was at stake which such high-minded patriots knew how to value, more than the unreflecting who may have loved the occurrence of revolution for the sake of the excitement, and had less care for its results, because they had nothing valuable to lose, nothing sacred to abandon. The very term revolution is a fearful one to such patriots as were presided over by John Hancock. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
