Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Life of Marlborough, Vol. 1 of 4 The humble object proposed in this little volume (as in its predecessor) is to place in the hands of, or render accessible to, all classes of the community, a cheap and compendious account of the doings and sayings of one of the greatest of English warriors and statesmen; - to present a convenient manual or pocket-companion, in which no important fact should be omitted, and in which the dryness and frequent abruptness of mere abridgment should be avoided. The busy have not time (and in this over-worked generation who is not busy?) for the perusal of voluminous works on one subject, the young are deterred by the bulk, and the less opulent classes by the cost, of such books. Yet the great facts in the lives of men like Wellington and Marlborough ought to he familiar to every Englishman. An earnest desire for peace does not always carry with it the attainment and security of that blessing. The continent of Europe is turned into a camp.
