Conquest and Self-Conquest: Or Which Makes The Hero? is a book written by Maria Jane Mintosh and published in 1876. The book explores the theme of heroism and asks the question of what makes a hero. Mintosh examines the idea of external conquests, such as military victories or political power, versus the idea of internal conquests, such as self-discipline and self-control. She argues that true heroism comes from a combination of both external and internal conquests. The book also explores the concept of self-conquest, or the ability to control one's own thoughts and actions, as a key component of heroism. Mintosh uses examples from history and literature to illustrate her points and provide inspiration for readers to strive for heroism in their own lives. Overall, Conquest and Self-Conquest: Or Which Makes The Hero? is a thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be a hero and how to achieve heroism through both external and internal conquests.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
