This volume contains Stephen Leacock's 1942 wartime treatise, &quote;Our Heritage of Liberty - Its Origin, Its Achievement, Its Crisis&quote;. This fascinating and thought-provoking text will appeal to those with an interest in war-inspired literature, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of related works. The chapters of this volume include: &quote;Britain and America&quote;, &quote;The Good and the Bad Old Times&quote;, &quote;The March of Progress&quote;, &quote;Liberty in the Ancient World, &quote;The Shadow of the Dark and Middle Ages&quote;, &quote;National States&quote;, &quote;The Growth of Popular Rights&quote;, and more. Stephen P. H Butler Leacock (1869 - 1944) was a Canadian writer, humourist, and teacher. He was amongst the most widely read English-speaking authors in the world during the early twentieth century, and is best remembered for his humourous novels. We are republishing this vintage book now in an affordable, modern edition - complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
