Excerpt from Thoughts on the Greek Revolution
If any critical Ibis, whose beak checks the plague of literary serpents, should pierce this minute ephemeral production, though I may shrink from that sensitiveness, which the earliest and deepest trials of sensibility cannot raise us quite above, I sh all never repent trying to re deem the character of England, and to promote the interests of Greece.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the historical and social contexts of the Greek revolution, which took place from 1821â"1829, and gained Greece its independence from the Ottoman Empire. The author aims to articulate the background and subsequent suffering of the Greeks, in the hope of generating compassion and donations to alleviate their suffering on behalf of the people of England. At the time, charitable organizations only fed a population devastated by war, disease, and the threat of famine.
