The author of this volume desires by way of preface to say just two things:—firstly, that it is his earnest hope
that this record of a hero may be an aid to brave and true living in the Republic, so that the problems knocking
at its door for solution may find the heads, the hands, and the hearts equal to the performance of the duties
imposed by them upon the men and women of this generation. William Lloyd Garrison was brave and true.
Bravery and truth were the secret of his marvelous career and achievements. May his countrymen and
countrywomen imitate his example and be brave and true, not alone in emergent moments, but in everyday
things as well.
So much for the author's firstly, now for his secondly, which is to acknowledge his large indebtedness in the
preparation of this book to that storehouse of anti-slavery material, the story of the life of William Lloyd
Garrison by his children. Out of its garnered riches he has filled his sack.
