And he comes before you not as an indis- tinct, indefinite generalization, but as a living being, with all his human errors and all his personal peculiarities about hun. You look upon his brow, thoughtful and grave, or radiant and open ; his eyes calm, perhaps, in repose, but kindhng with action ; the smile that plays around his hps, or the stern decision that con- tracts them ; you hsten to his voice ; you see him move, his gait, his air, his gesture, and following him into the minutest detail...s of private life, the cut and color of his dress, his savings at the social board, and his bearing in the domestic circle. Thus the age is reproduced by means of the individual, who becomes its characteristic expression, a spirit called up from among the dead, and appearing in all the reality of its human existence, to tell us what and how the men of his times were. And when you close the volume you feel as if you had known them all, had hved, had acted with them, had shared in their fears, had partaken of their hopes, had felt, thought, and judged as they judged and felt, and thought.
