At 5 I walked out with all my ladies and gentlemen; I had not been out many minutes when Lord Melbourne joined me, and walked near me the whole time. We walked down to Adelaide Cottage. Lord M. Asked me if Uncle Leopold was very angry with Mamma I said Pretty well; upon which Lord M. Observed laughing, I think he's afraid of her, which I fear is the case. I asked Lord M. If he thought I should walk round the Terrace; I think it would be better, he replied. In going up to the terrace, there is a very steep hill which is a dreadful pull, and Lord M. And I were quite blown in coming up.

We then walked up and down the Terrace (the private part) for a few minutes, listening to the band, and came home at It wasa beautiful evening. Read in Durham's despatch.

Download or read book Melbourne written by Philip Ziegler and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I agree with Lord David [Cecil] that Melbourne as a friend or relative must have been one of the most delightful, wise and entertaining of men, but in public life I believe him also to have been ambitious, cynical and almost wholly without political principle. He was, in short, much less of a carefree amateur, much more of a politician.' Philip Ziegler, from his Preface First published in 1976, Philip Ziegler's Melbourne drew on hitherto unused material and made an unprecedently searching assessment of the eminent Whig statesman of the 1830s/40s. It is extraordinary enough that Queen Victoria's first Prime Minister should have been dragged through the courts by an aggrieved husband not once but twice. Yet Melbourne's 'problematic' personal life is only one reason why Ziegler, even-handed and scrupulous, was compelled to test the validity of Victoria's famous final judgement that Melbourne was 'not a good or firm minister'.

Download or read book Sikunder Burnes written by Craig Murray and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biography that “restore[s] this remarkable young man to his rightful position as a leading figure in Scotland’s contribution to our imperial history” (The Scottish Review). This is an astonishing true tale of espionage, journeys in disguise, secret messages, double agents, assassinations and sexual intrigue. Alexander Burnes was one of the most accomplished spies Britain ever produced and the main antagonist of the Great Game as Britain strove with Russia for control of Central Asia and the routes to the Raj. There are many lessons for the present day in this tale of the folly of invading Afghanistan and Anglo-Russian tensions in the Caucasus. Murray’s meticulous study has unearthed original manuscripts from Montrose to Mumbai to put together a detailed study of how British secret agents operated in India. The story of Burnes’ life has a cast of extraordinary figures, including Queen Victoria, King William IV, Earl Grey, Benjamin Disraeli, Lola Montez, John Stuart Mill and Karl Marx. Among the unexpected discoveries are that Alexander and his brother James invented the myths about the Knights Templars and Scottish Freemasons which are the foundation of the Da Vinci Code; and that the most famous nineteenth-century scholar of Afghanistan was a double agent for Russia. “An important re-evaluation of this most intriguing figure.” —William Dalrymple, bestselling author of The Anarchy “Murray’s book is a terrific read. He has done full justice to the life of a remarkable British hero, without ignoring his faults.” —Daily Mail “A fascinating book . . . his research has been prodigious, both in libraries and on foot. He knows a huge amount about Burnes’s life and work.” —The Scotsman
