Excerpt from Facing the Twentieth Century: Our Country, Its Power and PerilThe Republic, with the momentum secured in making more than a century of glorious history, is about to move into the twentieth century and work out its manifest destiny in extending civil and religious liberty to the millions which come under its benign rule.Without attempting an elaborate discussion of any one of the themes here considered, I have essayed to give a brief survey of the sources of our civilization, of the institutions which conserve and promote this civilization, of the peril which menaces these institutions, and of the legal, organic, and moral forces which may be depended upon to protect them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
