Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Henry John Temple, Viscount Palmerston, 1846-1865, Vol. 1: With Selections From His Speeches and Correspondences The period readied by Lord Dalling´s work forms the starting-point of the present volume, and my object in the pages which follow has been to chronicle the events of the last twenty years of Lord Palmerston´s life, with his policy opinions, and acts, in a plain but intelligible manner, and -with a due regard to brevity. It is not easy to convey a truthful knowledge, and impossible to convey a full knowledge, of so near a past while present susceptibilities still exist and demand consideration. Nor could proper brevity be secured except by omitting much in the way of explanatory statement which some may look for, but which ought not to be needed; for though, according to Guizot, the history of the day before yesterday is the least known and the most forgotten by the public of to-day, still the general facts of this period must be familiar to the, greater number of educated persons.
