Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Historical and the Posthumous, Vol. 1 of 5: Memoirs of Sir Nathaniel William Wraxall; 1772 1784; Edited, With Notes and Additional Chapters From the Author´s Unpublished Ms. It is my intention, in continuation of the present Work, to publish the Third Part of these Memoirs, which circumscribes the space of full five Years, from the 25th of March, 1784, down to April, 1789. The last-mentioned Year may be considered, under every aspect, as one of the most important that took place in the course of the Eighteenth Century. First, as in it we witnessed His Majesty´s happy Recovery from that great Attack, which involved this Country in temporary Confusion, overturned for a time the Administration, and threatened for ever to bereave us of the Blessings of his Government. Secondly, as having originated, a few Months later, the Calamity of the French Revolution: an Event which may be said to stand pre-eminent for Atrocity in the History of Modern Ages, and which, in its results, has covered Europe with Desolation.
