Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lord Roberts: A Biography On this particular ship was a lad of nineteen, small and delicate to look at, so delicate indeed that older people shook their heads and talked of the folly of his facing a tropical climate.' But underneath the apparent delicacy lay a vigorous spirit and a wiry constitution, the love of a simple, hardy outdoor life, the hatred of anything like luxury or coddling. For young Frederick Roberts was every inch of him a soldier's son, and India, the land of his birth, was the land which called him. He came of a fighting and of an Irish stock, and what better combination could be found as an heritage for one destined to be the greatest soldier of his age His great-great grandfather, a Huguenot refugee, settled in Water ford, had fought for England at the battle of the Boyne. Two of his uncles had been in the navy; the one, Sir Samuel Roberts, who had been in fifty three actions, having commenced his adventurous career at the age of eleven, and afterwards had per formed deeds of daring which carry us back to the days of the Elizabethan sea-dogs. And his father, Sir Abraham Roberts, who lived to the age of ninety, has been called the patriarch of Indian Generals, and was a man of strong character, sound sense, and great tact, who won a high reputation for the manner in which he handled critical affairs in Afghanistan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Lord Roberts, K. G., V. C A chapter deals with a record of the veteran's last glorious campaign - a campaign against the ignorance of the country, against the apathy of the country, and against a long standing prejudice of the country. By his bold action he knew he had embraced the unpopular side; he had entered upon a bitter and feverish contest which would demand a considerable amount of toil; he would have to encounter bitter Opponents and at times meet a hostile auditory. But every consideration of mere prudence was absorbed in the great ruling passion - the safety of England - England that to me has been so much; England that for me has done so much.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Lord Roberts Autobiography and its half-brother biography are two of the most useful members of the great family of literature. Lord Roberts placed a high value on their services. His own fascinating Forty-One Years in India and his careful study of The Rise of Wellington are sufficient proofs of this. If further guarantee were necessary I have it in a letter he wrote to me a little over a year before the outbreak of the South African War. "The example of men who have got on in the world," he says, "cannot fail to stimulate boys to work hard themselves." It is equally certain that children of an older growth are no less susceptible, although they are apt to be a little more critical in their judgment. Throughout his long life, for instance, Roberts always retained his youthful affection for John Nicholson: "Nicholson impressed me more profoundly than any man I had ever met before, or have ever met since. I have never seen anyone like him. He was the beau-ideal of a soldier and a gentleman." Had Carlyle delivered his lectures on 'Heroes' half a century later than 1840, and had he designed to include living subjects, he would almost certainly have selected for his roll the victor of Kandahar. According to the Sage of Chelsea, sincerity is the first characteristic of heroism and originality: "No man adequate to do anything, but is first of all in right earnest about it."
