Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Sir Gilbert Elliot, Vol. 1 of 3: First Earl of Minto, From 1751 to 1806, When His Public Life in Europe Was Closed by His Appointment to the Vice-Royalty of India Dear Lord Russell, - I thank you for allowing me to connect my book with your name. The connection is a natural one, for the hook conforms to the advice you gave me four or five years ago; and the hope that you would find some interest in it has been present to me throughout. I have selected, as you advised, such portions of the first Lord Minto´s correspondence as, after elimination of topics purely personal and private, have appeared to contain matter of general interest. Of the voluminous collection preserved in MS. at Minto, comprising public and private, official and domestic correspondence, the letters now published form a small ∂ but they will, I trust, suffice to present a lively picture of the period at which they were written.
