Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Memoir of Lieutenant-General Sir Garnet J. Wolseley, Vol. 1 of 2 Some explanation appears necessary in publishing the Biography of a man still living. On the 6th of May, 1874, immediately on the return of Sir Garnet Wolseley from Ashantee, I commenced to write this Memoir of his military services. The task was a difficult one, for Sir Garnet had lost all his papers and journals. During the Indian Mutiny they were stolen, and what remained to him were burnt at the great fire at the Pantechnicon, where all his furniture and effects were consumed. Thus, when I applied to him for assistance, he expressed his regret that he had no private papers whatever in his possession, but, with characteristic kindness, consented to give me all the information in his power.
