Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lectures to American Audiences
In reading the lectures in different places, some mat ter of a specially local character was necessarily left out and put in at each. Things for instance which had a special fitness at Boston had no special fitness at Bal timore. In revising the lectures for the press, I have for the most part kept such local references as belonged specially to New England. In the first series there are naturally a good many. Of these, and that from two causes. The lectures were written first of all for de livery at Boston; and it will be further easy to see that, for the particular purpose which I had in hand, the name, the institutions, and the history Of New England supplied me with much that Specially suited my object.
