Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Mountain Hero and His Associates
Far. Be from me or mv friends, says a distinguished writer, such frigid philosophy, as may conduct us, indifferent and unmoved, over any ground that has been dignified by wisdom, bravery or virtue. The man is little to be envied whose patriot ism would not gain force upon the plains of Marathon, or whose piety would not grow warm among the ruins of Iona. And thus, among the objects that attract the attention of people, in all countries, as they advance in civilization, few are sought with more avidity than the facts cbncerning their early history.
