Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Charles Sumner
This course has frequently compelled statements of facts so familiar that their repetition seems almost impertinent while on the other hand the very limited space has compelled a rapidity of movement which destroys all proportion, and which prevents that free dom Of quotation which allows a man to become his own biographer. But I have sought, so far as I might, to put myself once more in the atmosphere of a time half remembered and long a familiar household tale, and to write of Mr. Sumner from the midst of his own political surroundings.
