Excerpt from Ordeal by Battle It is hardly necessary to plead, in extenuation of those many faults which any impartial reader will discover in the following pages, the impossibility of discussing events which are unfolding themselves around us, in the same detached spirit as if we were dealing with past history. The greater part of this volume has been written in haste, and no one is more alive to its shortcomings than the author himself. Faults of style are a small matter, and will be easily forgiven. It has not been the aim to produce a work of literary merit, but solely to present a certain view of public affairs. It is to be hoped that actual errors of fact are rare. Inconsistencies however - or apparent inconsistencies - cannot be altogether avoided, even by careful revision. But the greatest difficulty of all is to keep a true sense of proportion.

Excerpt from Superstition and Force: Essays on the Wager of Law the Wager of Battle the Ordeal the Torture It is from these sources that I have attempted, in the present work, a brief investigation into the group of laws and customs through which our forefathers sought to dis cover hidden truth when disputed between man and man. Not only do these throw light upon the progress of human development from primitive savagism to civilized enlightenment, but they bring into view some of the strangest mysteries of the human mind. In this edition I have endeavored to indicate, more clearly than before, the source, in prehistoric antiquity.

Excerpt from Superstition and Force: Essays on the Wager of Law the Wager of Battle the Ordeal Torture Apart from the exact sciences, there is no subject which more fully repays the student than the history of jurisprudence. To the reflecting mind few popular quotations are so essentially false, or reveal so narrow a view of life as the often cited lines - "How small, of all that human hearts endure, That part which kings or laws can cause or cure!" Since the origin of society, each unit of our race has struggled on in his allotted path, through joys and griefs, fashioned, for the most part, by the invisible network of habits, customs, and statutes, which surround him on every side, and silently shape his daily actions. Thus the history of jurisprudence becomes the history of the life of man, and the society of distant ages is more distinctly presented to us in the crabbed sentences of codes than in the flowing rhetoric of the historian. Slender as may be the respect with which we of to-day sometimes regard rotatory assemblymen and partisan judges, still are they none the less noteworthy personages. The parts are more important than the actors, and centuries hence it will be to our statute books and reports that the curious student will resort to find out what manner of men were the restless and energetic race which found self-government a harder task than the founding of a gigantic empire. The law-giver and the law-dispenser are the custodians of all that we hold dear on earth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Battle Invisible: And Other Stories Court was dismissed. The jury, after sitting all night and nearly all day, had found the prisoner not guilty. Solomon Stone, once more a free man, walked with an unsteady step and a haggard face from the court room, and with his attorney drove away. The throng of men that had attended the trial from beginning to end, each a self appointed judge, gathered in groups of twos and threes on and about the court-house steps, and discussed the case. Every face was either stern or serious. There were many emphatic gestures in the different clusters. Some spoke in low confidential tones, others argumentatively, while a few voices were loud in anger and replete with threats. These were the friends of Nathan Overton who had died, they claimed, from the effects of a blow dealt him on the head by Solomon Stone. The two men were neighbors, and had quarreled over a blooded colt which both claimed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Stand Up, Ye Dead Two years ago the writer published a book called The Great Discovery. It seemed to him in those days, when the nation chose the ordeal of battle rather than dishonour, that the people, as if waking from sleep, discovered God once more. But, now, after an agony unparalleled in the history of the world, the vision of God has faded, and men are left groping in the darkness of a great bewilderment. The cause may not be far to seek. For every vision of God summons men to the girding of themselves that they may bring their lives more into conformity with His holy will. And when men decline the venture to which the vision beckons, then the vision fades. It is there that we have failed.
