Excerpt from Biographical Sketch of Gen. Joseph Warren: Embracing the Prominent Events of His Life, and His Boston Orations of 1772 and 1775; Together With the Celebrated Eulogy Pronounced by Perez Morton, M. M., On the Re-Interment of the Remains by the Masonic Order, at King's Chapel, in 1776This little sketch claims simply to be a compilation. It has been written to supply an immediate need, and has drawn its material from many sources. Dr. Wisner's sermons and Gen. Quincy's eloquent speech before the Massachusetts legislature have furnished the early history; and the events of Revolutionary interest have been drawn chiefly from the papers of the day or the lives of the prominent actors.At some future time a larger volume will be issued, suitably prepared and copiously illustrated, which shall be more worthy of the subject of which it treats.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
