Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Extracts of the Journals and Correspondence of Miss. Berry, Vol. 2 of 3: From the Year 1783 to 1852 Miss Berry stated in her entry for this year that General O´Hara had met them at Cheltenham, and afterwards at Park Place. He was no new acquaintance to Miss Berry, for so early as the year 1784 he is mentioned in her journal as having accompanied their party in their expedition to the Palls of Terni. General O´Hara was highly esteemed by those with whom Miss Berry lived in greate´st intimacy. He is often mentioned with praise and interest in Lord Orford´s letters. He was a cherished friend of Marshal Conway and Lady Ailesbury, and was on terms of almost brotherly affection with their daughter Mrs. Darner. He was for some years Governor of Gibraltar, and the following character of him, which appeared in the novel of ´Cyril Thornton,´ may throw some light on his claims to the warm admiration of his friends, and to that enthusiastic love, which he inspired in vain, and never really lost: - ´It is impossible for me to recur to the period of my sojourn in Gibraltar, and yet to say nothing of the governor, General O´Hara. His appearance, indeed, was of that striking cast, which, once seen, is not easily forgotten. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
