Description
Excerpt from Moulton of Tonga
I have been asked to write a few words of introduction to this sketch, and I do so gladly. But in reality no Foreword is necessary: this memoir is one of the kind that explain themselves. I have myself always had a distaste for the traditional biography, which is made by elaborating unrelated facts before they get forgotten. The true biography; presents facts in perspective, until the whole crystallizes into a unit of impressions. Those who read this sketch cannot fail to feel, as they read, a clear personality and an impressive life-work.
