Description

The book ""Speeches of George William Curtis and Henry Ward Beecher"" is a compilation of speeches given by two prominent American orators in the late 19th century. George William Curtis was a writer, editor, and social reformer, while Henry Ward Beecher was a Congregationalist minister and abolitionist. The speeches in this book cover a variety of topics including politics, social justice, and religion. Some of the notable speeches included are Curtis' ""The Duty of the American Scholar"" and Beecher's ""The Royal Law of Liberty."" These speeches provide insight into the intellectual and moral climate of America during the late 1800s and offer a glimpse into the minds of two influential figures of the time. The book was originally published in 1898 and remains a valuable resource for historians, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of American oratory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
