Excerpt from The Liberal Temper in Greek PoliticsAs the processes of note-taking and translation and exegesis and bibliography gathered momentum, I began to seem to myself involved almost unwillingly in a task of restitution, an enterprise which would render historical justice to a group of forgotten men. In the fall of 1954 I resorted to solitude in New Hampshire in order to write out the story of their thought, and they can be said to have followed me there, as I sought to live with their memory, sitting beside a wood stove and composing the entire first draft in a sort of sustained fury of composition.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
