Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from General Lord Wolseley (of Cairo): A Memoir This Memoir of Lord Wolseley, so far as it deals with his career up to the time of his proceeding to Cyprus in the summer of 1878, was published in that year. His conduct of operations in Egypt appearing to call for a new edition, I have written a sketch of his services from that date up to the present time. This volume contains the first published account of Lord Wolseley´s administration of Cyprus. It was his intention to write an official report of his doings during the first twelve months the island was under British rule, when he organized the administration and guided the tottering footsteps of this, the youngest of the Mother Country´s Colonies. But his hurried departure to Natal, to supersede Lord Chelmsford, prevented the execution of this design. The account of Lord Wolseley´s conduct of affairs in South Africa, including the operations in Zululand, his dealing with the Boers, and the Secocoeni Campaign, are also published in this volume for the first time, and, as with the Cyprus chapter, the details may be relied upon, his lordship having kindly revised the proof-sheets.
