Excerpt from William Lloyd Garrison, 1805-1879, Vol. 1: The Story of His Life Writing not without bias, surely, but in a spirit emulous of the absolute fairness which distinguished our father, we have done little more than coordinate materials to serve posterity in forming that judgment of him which we have no desire to forestall. In a literary point of view, we have aimed at nothing more than clearness, sequence, and proportion. The force of this narrative is cumulative, in a high degree. N o one - let the observation seem ever so na'if who does not read it consecutively, and (from the pains we have been at to avoid repetition) closely, will arrive at a just conception of the man, the cause, or the times. Many threads, of course, lead nowhere. Individual careers are not followed out to the end, whether more or less intimately connected with Mr. Gar rison's. The threads of his development, on the other hand, are kept together as sedulously as in a novel. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
