Amazon.com description: Product Description: "A speck in the Northern Ocean, with a rocky coast, an ungenial climate, and a soil scarcely fruitful,âthis was the material patrimony which descended to the English raceâan inheritance that would have been little worth but for the inestimable moral gift that accompanied it. Yes; from Celts, Saxons, Danes, Normansâfrom some or all of themâhave come down with English nationality a talisman that could command sunshine, and plenty, and empire, and fame. The 'go' which they transmitted to usâthe national visâthis it is which made the old Angle-land a glorious heritage. Of this we have had a portion above our brethrenâgood measure, running over. Through this our island-mother has stretched out her arms till they enriched the globe of the earth....Britain, without her energy and enterprise, what would she be in Europe?"âBlackwood's Edinburgh Magazine (1870).
