As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)

Excerpt from Voyages From Montreal, on the River St. Laurence, Through the Continent of North America to the Frozen and Pacific Oceans, in the Years 1789 and 1793On presenting this Volume to my Country, it is not necessary to enter into a particular account of those voyages whose journals form the principal part of it, as they will be found, I trust, to explain themselves. It appears, however, to be a duty, which the Public have a right to expect from me, to state the reasons which have influenced me in delaying the publication of them.It has been asserted, that a misunderstanding between a person high in office and myself, was the cause of this procrastination. It has also been propagated, that it was occacasioned by that precaution which the policy of commerce will sometimes suggest; but they are both equally devoid of foundation. The one is an idle tale; and there could be no solid reason for concealing the circumstances of discoveries, whose arrangements and prosecution were so honourable to my associates and myself, at whose expence they were undertaken.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

History of the Frasers of Lovat: With Genealogies of the Principal Families of the Name: To Which Is Added Those of Dunballoch and Phopachy (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from History of the Frasers of Lovat: With Genealogies of the Principal Families of the Name: To Which Is Added Those of Dunballoch and PhopachyThis work has extended to such a length that it would be impossible to include the Aberdeenshire Erasers in one volume, even if it were considered desirable to give here an account of that family. There is, however, no need for this, Lord Saltoun having, only a few years ago, published three handsome volumes giving the history and genealogies of his own family - the Frasers of Philorth and their branches. But there never has been any full account of the Frasers of Lovat and the several families descended from that stock.The Historical Account of the Family of Fraser by the late John Anderson, published in 1825, although written for a special purpose and in the interest of the Lovat family, contains much valuable information, and it has to some extent been taken advantage of in the preparation of this work. It does not, however, deal with any of the branches beyond the briefest reference, and is not a genealogical work at all except as regards the main line of the family. And even in that it cannot always be implicitly relied upon.This work is not only historical and genealogical but is chronogically arranged from beginning to end, the minor families being dealt with in the order in which they branched off from the main stem, except those of illegitimate origin, which come in later.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
