Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Correspondence of John, Fourth Duke of Bedford, Vol. 2: Selected From the Originals at Woburn Abbey The correspondence contained in this volume relates to the period from the peace of Aix-la-Chapelle to the death of George II. I have inserted in the course of the volume notices of the events which led to the resignation by the Duke of Bedford of the office of Secretary of State, and of the intrigues and cabals which, after several turns of fortune, produced in 1757 the junction of Newcastle and Pitt. Some remarks in illustration of the character of the Duke of Bedford, and of the times in which he lived, have been reserved for this place. Since the first volume was published, my attention has been called to a passage in Lord Mahon´s instructive work, on the History of England from the peace of Utrecht, relating to the Duke of Bedford´s acceptance of the office of Secretary of State at the commencement of the year 1748.
