Excerpt from The English National Character: Delivered in the Sheldonian Theatre, June 17, 1896In attempting to follow out this line of thought, it is necessary to find a starting-point. I will not venture on speculations about the in¿uence of race or climate, but will confine myself within the limits of recorded facts. I am not concerned with the origin of our national character, interesting as that may be, but with its nature and the forms in which it has declared itself in history.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
