By the Author. Foreword by Mr. Justice Wendell Phillips Stafford of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia The only foreword that seems to be appropriate is a word of congratulation to those into whose hands this book may fall. No introduction is necessary, to the book itself, for wherever it is opened it will make itself charmingly familiar. No introduction of the author can be needed, because he is his own intro ducer, introducing both himself and others, and no one else could do it better. You have only to accept the offered hand and go with him on his interesting way. You will find here a large company of distin tinguished people aside from the Presidents them selves, whom you are especially invited to meet You will find yourself refreshing your recollection of a great period in American history. You will get many glimpses of what was going on behind the scenes in Washington. You will listen to delightful stories. You will be touched by pathetic incidents. You will be moved to laughter and perhaps to tears. You will see the anxious face of Buchanan, the hag gard, far-away look of Lincoln, the narrow self willed expression of Johnson, the imperturbable de meanor of Grant, the gracious personality of Hayes, the large, magnetic presence of Garfield, the courtly bearing of Arthur, the indomitable figure of Cleve land, the cold self-possession of Harrison, the win ning smile of McKinley, the restless and virile move ments of Roosevelt, the massive form and bland good-fellowship of Taft, and accomplished ease and dignity of Wilson. You will find yourself present at many interesting meetings, where your presence will not hinder the free disclosure of personal traits in these and other noted characters of the time, and as you move through the changing scenes, you will come to have a warm admiration for your conductor so witty, so full of intelligence and kindly human interest, so frank and engaging in his revelation of himself and his activities, so devoted to the welfare of his people, so indefatigable in his efforts, so elo quent in his appeals, so broad in his sympathies, so unqualifiedly American in all he does and says...","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51024605217041,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51024608461073,"sku":"NIN9781406746396","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1406746398.jpg?v=1751208989"},{"product_id":"american-jew-as-patriot-soldier-and-citizen-book-simon-wolf-9789353299286","title":"The American Jew as Patriot.
