Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Ambrose Phillipps De Lisle, Vol. 1 of 2 In offering to the public the "Life and Letters" of my father, I am but carrying out a filial duty. The last act of my venerable mother´s long and chequered life was to commit all the letters and manuscripts made use of in this book to the Author of the Life of Cardinal Manning, to enable him to complete the very luminous contribution he had made to the history of the wonderful religious movement which has taken place in England during the present century. In doing so, Mrs. de Lisle was not unaware that she was running the risk of hostile criticism, especially from members of her own communion. But at the age of eighty-four, persons who have lived all their lives in the exercise of Christian virtue are not easily led astray by worldly considerations, and there did not appear to be any one else in the Catholic body who had had such an intimate acquaintance with my father´s politico-religious and reunion views, and at the same time was in touch with such distinguished leaders of the Anglican body as Lord Halifax and the late Mr. Gladstone. Moreover, Mr. Purcell engaged to submit the whole of his work to my judgment before publication. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
