Description
Excerpt from National Life and Thought of the Various Nations Throughout the World: A Series of Addresses
The Lectures contained in this Volume Were delivered on Sunday afternoon, at South Place Institute, during the Session 1889-90, and were designed to give information, in a popular form, with regard to the national development and modes of political action among the different nations throughout the world, by means of sympathetic and trustworthy accounts of their history, national aspiration, and modes of government, it being thought that a general dissemination of such knowledge would not only improve our Institutions, but, by stimulating our interest in foreign countries, tend to promote international amity.
The Committee take this opportunity of expressing their obligations to the different Lecturers for the willingness with which they have made it possible to carry'' on this work, and trust that the general public, to whom this Volume is now offered, will appreciate the information therein contained as highly as did the audiences to whom the Lectures were originally addressed.
