Excerpt from Tom Brown at Oxford: A Sequel to School Days at RugbyThe great tasks of the world are only laid on the strong est shoulders. We, who have India to guide and train, who have for our task the educating of her wretched peo ples into free men,who feel that the work cannot be shifted from ourselves and must be done as God would have it done, at the peril of England's own life, can and do feel for you. But as we hope to get through with our own work, as we would ask no meaner work for ourselves, so we rejoice that you, our brethren, have shaken yourselves up to your work, and have put your hands to it in such grim earnest as assures us that the old blood is still the same despite all difference of latitude or longitude.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
