Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rambling Recollections, Vol. 1 of 2 Unfortunately, what are called my declining years have not been overcrowded with enjoyment; but among my pleasanter recollections are those of Americans like Consuelo, Duchess of Manchester; her sister. Lady Lister Kaye; Mrs. Adair, and Lady Randolph Churchill. These friends being still alive let us hope for many years to come I venture neither to eulogise nor to criticise. I have also much to say of gratitude to the family of the late Duke and Duchess of Marlborough, to Lord and Lady Londonderry, to Lady Chesterfield, and to Mr. and Mrs. George Bankes and their family, from all of whom I have received many acts of kindness. I may say the same of the late Duke of Wellington a man of extraordinary common sense and irresistible humour. If it were my misfortune to write any sequel to this book, I should have much to say that space has now forced me to omit. I feel under great obligations to Sir Edward Grey and to other members of the Foreign Office for the facilities they have given me in connection with this work. My warm thanks are also due to the Russian Ambassador and to the Persian charge d´affaires. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
