Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Personal Recollections of Werner Von Siemens
It is curious what a deep and lasting impression this first victory made on my childish mind. Even now, after well nigh 7 O years all the persons and surroundings, associated with this important event, stand clearly before my eyes. With it too is connected the only remembrance that remains to me of the appearance of my parents in their younger years; and numberless times in difficult situations of life the victory over the gander has unconsciously stimulated me, not to yield to threatening dangers, but to over come, by boldly confronting, them.
