Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of Henry St. George Tucker: Late Accountant-General of Bengal and Chairman of the East India Company A Work of this kind tells its own story so plainly, that little prefatory remark need be made in the shape of explanation or apology. I was requested to write the Life of Henry St. George Tucker; and believing that a Memoir of one, who throughout the space of half a century took no unimportant part in many of the great transactions of Indian history, and who, in his participation in those transactions, "did all like a man," would contribute much both in the way of historical information and personal example to the general stock of "things worth knowing," I undertook to write it; and the present volume is the result of my endeavors. I wish, however, to add, that for the publication of whatsoever the Memoir contains, I, and I alone, am responsible. It is based entirely on materials derived from private sources. I have not received the smallest assistance from any public body or any official person. If there be anything in this volume which ought not to be there, the indiscretion is mine. I believe, however, that the faults of the work are rather those of omission than commission. Certainly they are in my own eyes.
