Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Althorp Memoirs, or Biographical Notices: Of Lady Denham, the Countess of Shrewsbury, the Countess of Falmouth, Mrs. Jenyns, the Duchess of Tyrconnel, and Lucy Walter; Six Ladies Whose Portraits Are to Be Found in the Picture Gallery of His Excellency Earl Spencer, K. G., K. P., Lord Lieutenant-G This little volume derives its existence from a visit paid by the author to the Earl and Countess Spencer in the summer of 1864. Finding that the noble proprietors of a noble collection of portraits were much interested in the history, of the personages represented, he at different times communicated to Lord Spencer such biographical memoranda in reference to several of them as had come under his notice while engaged upon his favourite occupation of hunting-up the domestic occurrences of England under the Stuarts. From these stones have been raised the house. A residence in London and better health would together have furnished him with the means of extending, in material and number, the list of memoirs. As it is, it includes only imperfect sketches - for they deserve no better name - of six handsome ladies, all more or less memorable, and - must it be said?
