Excerpt from Life of George Washington: The Father of Modern Democracy

It is some consolation in the face of this vortex of war, universal almost over Europe, in which democrats and aristocrats, Jews and Gentiles, Mahommedan and Chris tian are indiscriminately engaged on either side contending for what God alone knows and slaying each other with a power and hate unknown hitherto in ancient or modern times, to turn our minds, sick with the horror of it all, to the home of true Democracy and the land of free institu tions, and to recall scenes that were made sacred and heroes that are immortal in the Republic of the West.
