''Select Speeches of Daniel Webster'' is a collection of speeches given by the renowned American statesman and orator, Daniel Webster. This book features some of his most famous speeches, such as his addresses on the Constitution, the Union, and the Compromise of 1850. Webster’s speeches are known for their eloquence, clarity, and powerful rhetoric, and they offer valuable insights into the political and social issues of his time. The book also includes a biographical sketch of Webster, providing context for his speeches and highlighting his contributions to American politics and history. This volume is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, political philosophy, or the art of public speaking.Gentlemen, it is a most extraordinary case. In some respects, it has hardly a precedent anywhere; certainly none in our New England history. This bloody drama exhibited no suddenly excited, ungovernable rage. The actors in it were not surprised by any lion-like temptation springing upon their virtue, and overcoming it, before resistance could begin. Nor did they do the deed to glut savage vengeance, or satiate long-settled and deadly hate. It was a cool, calculating, money-making murder.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
