Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Henry of Monmouth: Or Memoirs of the Life and Character of Henry the Fifth, Vol. 1 of 2: As Prince of Wales and King of England Memories such as these of Henry of Monmouth might doubtless be made more attractive and entertaining were their Author to supply the deficiencies of authentic records by the inventions of his fancy, and adorn the result of careful inquiry into matters of fact by the descriptive imagery and colourings of fiction. To a writer, also, who could at once handle the pen of the biographer and of the poet, few names would offer a more ample field for the excursive range of historical romance than the life of Henry of Monmouth. From the day of his first compulsory visit to Ireland, abounding as that time does with deeply interesting incidents, to his last hour in the now-ruined castle of Vincennes; - or rather, from his mother´s espousals to the interment of his earthly remains within the sacred precincts of Westminster, every period teems with animating suggestions.
