Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The True Patrick Henry
Virginia this year rounds out her three centuries. Dividing this stretch of time in half, we are at the period when she gave to the world her most spirited and powerful generation of men. Washington was among these; and one of the foremost, also, was Patrick Henry. Why and how it was that, being born under the ?ag of Great Britain, they elected to live and die under another, everybody knows; but to gain a true understanding of them it is necessary to reach back into the comparatively unilluminated colonial era. Therefore, if the reader will put his finger at the chron ological spot suggested, we shall have a useful start ing-point for this inquiry.
