A collection of the letters and addresses that illustrate why his position as a master of oration is unquestioned. No man of his century could state a proposition with more exactness and compactness. His clarity of expression, the consistent building up of his argument, his brilliantly apt comparisons, his illuminating wit, his merciless pursuit of illogic in his opponents, his reserve and his dignity would be remarkable in a mind highly trained and in the untaught son of the wilderness become phenomenal.
