Excerpt from Robert Fulton and the Clermont: The Authoritative Story of Robert Fulton's Early Experiments, Persistent Efforts, and Historic Achievements, Containing Many of Fulton's Hitherto Unpublished Letters, Drawings, and Pictures

Robert Fulton anticipated the enlight enment Of this century. He emphasized truths which prevail to-day and are termed modern: a hope for Universal Peace; a claim for Intellectual Freedom through a system of general, free education; a dis cernment that a Nation's wealth is the sum of the talents and handiworks Of its citi zens; and a sacrifice Of any personal claim to leisure that through labor a world might be served; these were the ruling motives Of his life.
