Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Correspondence of Lord Burghersh: Afterwards Eleventh Earl of Westmorland, 1808-1840 With the centenary of the Napoleonic period interest in all that relates to that time has been stimulated. The inner history of great events is being constantly revealed, and fresh points of view presented by the publication of memoirs and biographies of an earlier generation. It is therefore hoped this collection of letters from Lord Burghersh´s private and official correspondence may interest the general reader who, preferring fact to fiction, finds recreation in the personal records written by those who took an active part in moulding the destinies of nations. Though circumstances placed Lord Burghersh in the midst of great events, he was but one of many who played a part at a time when the names of Wellington and Napoleon overshadowed all others. It has therefore seemed better that the short introductory sketches of contemporary events should serve more as a background to elucidate and connect the letters, rather than to enter into the private life of Lord Burghersh, which was singularly happy and domestic.
