Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of Field Marshall Sir George Pollock, Bart;, G. C. B., G. C. S. I : Constable of the Tower Little preface, and no apology, is needed in writing the life of a man who has rendered such surpassing services to his country as has Sir George Pollock; but a few words are necessary to account for this work appearing so closely upon his lamented decease. This memoir was commenced in 1869, and completed before June in the following year, when the venerable subject of it received the baton of Field-Marshal, an honour which was quickly succeeded by his appointment to the post of Constable of the Tower, and a baronetcy; culminating on his death with a public funeral in Westminster Abbey. As the chapters of this work treating of Sir George Pollock´s career were completed, they were forwarded to him for perusal, and revision.
