Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of Emma Lady Hamilton: With Anecdotes of Her Friends and Contemporaries The general and increasing interest shown in the history of Emma, lady Hamilton, who, with all her shortcomings, and in some measure trough them, was one of the most celebrated women of her age, and who combined with the acknowledged charms of her person mental powers of no common range and versatility, is the principal reason for the republication of her much-maligned "Memoirs," with corrections and annotations. The story of her wonderfully chequered career from her cradle to her grave, and her connection with the greatest naval commander the world has ever seen, is as attractive and thrilling as a romance, and will serve for all time - "to point a moral, or adorn a tale." The first edition of the "Memoirs of Lady Hamilton," by an anonymous author was published by H. Colburn in 1815, and a second edition, corrected and enlarged, a few weeks later in the same year.
