Character and Characteristic Men is a book by Edwin P. Whipple that explores the concept of character and the qualities that define it. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part examining the nature of character and the second part profiling various individuals who embody different aspects of it. Whipple argues that character is not merely a matter of moral virtue, but also encompasses traits such as courage, perseverance, and creativity. He uses examples from literature, history, and contemporary society to illustrate his points and provide inspiration for readers seeking to develop their own character. The second part of the book features profiles of notable figures such as Benjamin Franklin, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Abraham Lincoln, highlighting the specific qualities that made them characteristic men. Overall, Character and Characteristic Men is a thoughtful and engaging exploration of a timeless topic that remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
