As death has fixed the seal of glory on his life, history should assign to him his rank. Much of the data in this sketch has been gathered from source material.

The Reforms Of The Gracchi, Marie Antoinette O'Connell

Bachelors’ Theses

In every decade and in every century there are certain men who stand out, so to speak, above all others. Some men are famous for literature, some for art: some are before the public because of their philanthropic work, while others are famous because of political standing.
