О книге

Excerpt from Victors of Peace

Mr. Gould's "brave citizens' are "heroes of peace" and "victors of peace." His great story-telling gift has always been used in the service of peace and good-will. The victories which he pictures so vividly in this book are conquests of nature for the service of man, like the triumphs of irrigation, reclamation, and scientific horticulture, sketched in the first story of our own West. As Mr. Gould tells these stories, the reader finds that no hero tales are more thrilling than these pictures of battles with the sea, or heroism in the service of others. Beside such historic deeds the conventional glories of mutual destruction seem tawdry and unavailing.

The author of Heroes of Peace and Victors of Peace, both under the general title of Brave Citizens, is best known to American readers as the author of The Children's Plutarch, published, like Brave Citizens, in two volumes entitled Tales of the Greeks and Tales of the Romans, with introductions by William Dean Howells.
