Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Joshua R. Giddings
Giddings during the greater part of his public service, and have long been familiar with his anti-slavery labors; my relations to his family gave me free access to his private correspondence and other papers of interest and value in the preparation of such a work; and it was the wish of his surviving relatives and friends that I should undertake it. While I have written in sympathy with my subject, I trust it will be found that I have not slighted the duty of discrimina tion, or seriously failed in the endeavor to deal fairly and impartially with the famous men and stirring events of a grand epoch.
