Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters to and From Henrietta, Countess of Suffolk, and Her Second Husband, the Hon., Vol. 1 of 2: George Berkeley; From 1712 to 1767 The match was probably in no point of view a prudent one. The lady´s father had been killed in a duel, when she was an infant; her only brother was, at the period of her marriage, about fifteen years of age, and she herself but a very few years older. It is therefore not likely that the propriety of the connexion was very carefully considered on her part. It is certain that the union was far from fortunate. Mr. Howard has been characterised by Mr. Horace Walpole as in the last degree worthless and contemptible. It may be doubted whether his errors deserved such severe epithets. His temper was indeed violent, and his feelings not delicate; but the circumstances in which he and Mrs. Howard subsequently found themselves, were such as might excuse some impatience on either side. Even the outset of their career was not happy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
