Excerpt from The Quarterly Review, Vol. 30: October, 1823 and January, 1824
There would be little courage in taking up a dead man's gauntlet; but, had the author been living, we should have exa mined his book in the same temper as is now brought to the work with no hostile feeling toward him or his country, though with a natural and proper predilection for our own; willing to learn, inquire and compare; glad of whatever grounds we may perceive for believing that the Americans may become more and more an enlightened and a virtuous people; but not without a sense of sa tisfaction and thankfulness if, in those points wherein the consti tution of their society differs most essentially from ours, cause should appear for concluding that, in proportion as they have de parted from the example of the mother-country, where that exam ple might have been followed, they have gone astray.
