The Light Bearer of Liberty by J.W. Scholl is a book that explores the life and legacy of Thomas Paine, one of the most influential political thinkers of the American Revolution. Scholl delves into Paine's background, including his early years in England and his eventual move to America, where he became a key figure in the fight for independence. The book also examines Paine's most famous works, including Common Sense and The Rights of Man, which helped to shape the political discourse of the time. Scholl argues that Paine's ideas about democracy, individual rights, and the role of government continue to resonate today, making him a true light bearer of liberty. The book is well-researched and engaging, providing readers with a deeper understanding of Paine's contributions to American history and political thought.1899. A collection of poetry, whose title-poem was written under the inspiration of the lectures of Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll, and is offered as a tribute to him, whom many delight to recognize as the manly and eloquent friend of man, woman, and child, the champion of the oppressed, the titanic foe of superstition, the torchbearer of intellectual liberty. The other poems are a humble contribution to the cause for which the best blood has been spilled, in all ages, and for which obloquy and hissing are borne now.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
