Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Count Grammont, Vol. 1 of 2 The justly-acquired popularity of the Memoirs of the Comte de Grammont, renders it unnecessary for the Publishers of this impression to say any thing concerning the intrinsic value of the Work. The principal claim of the present Edition to public favour consists in the extreme beauty of its Typographical Execution, and in the delicacy and truth of the Portraits; which latter have been principally copied from original Paintings; and it is but justice to Mr Scriven by whom they were executed, to say, that they are finished in a manner which cannot fail to afford general satisfaction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthony Hamilton, Vol. 33: Author of Memoirs of Count Grammont His Life and Works and His Family Considerable space has been devoted to the regiment d'Hamilton, for it seemed interesting, at a time when our army and the French were fighting side by side, to give the story of this Irish regiment serving in France, and although mention is made of the regiments Royal Anglais (horse and foot, also called Monmouth) and Douglas, much more might be said about them. Possibly this sketch may suggest to some one more qualified to undertake it a history of the English, Scottish and Irish regiments serving in France from 1671 to 1678. I know that some of the periods I have touched upon in this Life have already been very fully treated, e.g. the Revolution in Ireland and the exile in France; in those cases I have endeavoured to be brief and to make use especially of less well-known sources, in order to avoid producing what William Beckford once described as "literary aliment already reduced to a caput mortuum by repeated stewings." The introductions to the various editions of the Memoires de Grammont usually give some space to the life and works of Hamilton, but the best account of Hamilton's life is to be found in the Dictionary of National Biography, and as regards a critical estimate of his works, I have derived most benefit from Professor Saintsbury's article in the Fortnightly Review for October, 1890, and Mr. Stephen Gwynn's article in Macmillan's Magazine for May, 1898.

This book was released on 2018-07-05 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Memoirs of Count Grammont - Complete by Anthony Hamilton The accounts prefixed to the different editions of his works, down to the year 1805, are very imperfect; in that year a new, and, in general, far better edition than any of the preceding ones, was published in Paris, to which a sketch of his life was also added; but it contains rather just criticisms on his works, than any very novel or satisfactory anecdote concerning himself. It is not pretended here to gratify literary curiosity as fully as it ought to be, with regard to this singular and very ingenious man; some effort, however, may be made to communicate a few more particulars relative to him, than the public has hitherto, perhaps, been acquainted with. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work.

Book excerpt: The Memoirs of Count Grammont - Volume 06 by Anthony Hamilton The conversation before related was agreeable only to Miss Hobart; for if Miss Temple was entertained with its commencement, she was so much the more irritated by its conclusion this indignation was succeeded by the curiosity of knowing the reason why, if Sidney had a real esteem for her, she should not be allowed to pay some attention to him. As soon as they retired from the closet, Miss Sarah came out of the bath, where during all this conversation, she had been almost perished with cold, without daring to complain. This little gipsy had, it seems, obtained leave of Miss Hobart's woman to bathe herself unknown to her mistress; and having, I know not how, found means to fill one of the baths with cold water, Miss Sarah had just got into it, when they were both alarmed with the arrival of the other two. A glass partition enclosed the room where the baths were, and Indian silk curtains, which drew on the inside, screened those that were bathing. Miss Hobart's chamber-maid had only just time to draw these curtains, that the girl might not be seen to lock the partition door, and to take away the key, before her mistress and Miss Temple came in.
