Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Speeches in Parliament and Some Miscellaneous Pamphlets of the Late Henry Drummond, Esq., Vol. 1 of 2 As an introduction to this selection from the parliamentary speeches of the late Mr. Henry Drummond, to which are annexed some of his earlier pamphlets, little known to the present generation of readers, the Editor believes that the following short sketch of his political career will not be unacceptable. Henry Drummond was born in 1786; his father died before he was eight years old; and his mother, a daughter of the first Lord Melville, subsequently remarried to Mr. Strange, accompanied her husband a few years later to India, leaving behind her in this country her eldest son, then aged sixteen, with the remainder of her family by the first marriage. He was then still at Harrow, whither he had been sent at the early age of seven; during his stay there he was the cotemporary of Peel, Byron, and the other men of genius who, in the beginning of the present century, gave celebrity to the annals of the school.
