This book was released on 2016-06-19 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Correspondence of Field Marshal Sir John Burgoyne, Bart, Vol. 2 of 2 The first letter of Sir James Graham which follows refers to this communication; it will be seen from the correspondence of this period, that the power of Russia for offensive operations was very much overrated by those best informed in the matter. From Sir James Graham to Lord Raglan. "Admiralty, 12th January, 1854. "My dear Lord Raglan, "So far from stepping beyond your duty in allowing me to read the enclosed able report, you appear to me to have executed your duty - as you always do - in an exemplary manner. It would be most unfair that the British Admiral should not have the advantage of the opinion of one of our most distinguished scientific officers, so far as imperfect information has allowed him the means of forming a judgment. "I would suggest that Colonel Vicars should take with him a copy of Sir John Burgoyne's report, and that he should have permission to show it confidentially to Admiral Dundas. "I hope that you will concur in this suggestion. If you do, no time should be lost in sending a copy to Colonel Vicars, for he leaves London to-morrow morning, and will embark at Portsmouth in the afternoon. "I wish, also, that you would have the kindness to send me another copy of this same report for my own use. "It may be very desirable that the Cabinet should see and well consider it. "I am, &c., "J. R. G. Graham." "Admiralty, 18th January, 1854. "My dear Sir John, "You cannot offer us too much advice or too many suggestions: coming from you they are highly valued by me.

B, Vol. 2 of 2: Late Envoy to Persia, and Governor of Bombay; From the Unpublished Letters and Journals But although at certain hours of the day he threw himself earnestly and vigorously into his appointed work, he by no means buried himself in his cabin, or shunned the society of the ship. There were few merrier men than Captain Edgecumbe; and many were the hearty laughs which he and Malcolm enjoyed together. The wind was for some time very languid; so the passengers of the Sibbald were enabled often to go on board the Psyche and there were many pleasant social gatherings, at which songs were sung, and stories were told, and jokes passed about; and every one did his best to con tribute something to the general stock of amusement. Malcolm lived very temperately at this time, took regular exercise, and enjoyed excellent health. Every morning saw him at work before breakfast at the club-exercise, walking the deck, and playing at single-stick; and he wrote with exultation that his figure had decreased in girth, and the muscles of his arms expanded. The ship made little progress; but he said that his History made more so he did not complain Of the delay.

This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Correspondence of Field Marshal Sir John Burgoyne, Bart, Vol. 1 of 2 This opened the way to his acquaintance with the Stanley family, and his subsequent elopement with Lady Charlotte, the youngest daughter of Lord Derby. Whatever may have been the feelings of Lady Charlotte's parents on the subject of the marriage of their daughter with a soldier of fortune, it caused no interruption in the friendship between General Burgoyne and his brother-in-law: a friendship which in after years so powerfully affected the fortunes of his children. Lady Charlotte Burgoyne died without issue in 1776. Some years after her death, General Burgoyne formed a connection with a professional singer of some repute, who lived with him during the remainder of his life, and by whom he bad four children, of whom John, the eldest, was the late field marshal. In General Burgoyne's will, made in Dublin, while he was commander-in-chief in Ireland, he acknowledges his children, and makes provision for their future, by leaving the interest of a sum of 4000 to their mother for her life, and at her death to be divided in equal proportions among the children. In the same will he recommends that his eldest son, John, should enter the naval service, stating his conviction that it was the most promising that a young man in his son's circumstances could choose, but adding an earnest desire that his inclinations might not be forced.

B, Vol. 1 of 2: Late Envoy to Persia, and Governor of Bombay; From Unpublished Letters and Journals It remains only to be observed, that, with the excep tion Of two or three letters, the correspondence quoted in this Memoir is now published for the first time. In the later editions of the Wellington Correspondence may be found one or two of the Duke's letters topmalcolm, which appear also in the first of these volumes. The publication of the remainder, however, has not been an ticipated by Colonel Gurwood. There was no one to whom the Duke of Wellington wrote more unreservedly than to Sir John Malcolm. This unreserve has rendered necessary a cautious use of the correspondence but enough is still given to Show the intimate terms on which they corresponded, and to illustrate, at the same time, many interesting traits of the Duke's character.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence, Vol. 1 of 2: Of Sir Bartle Frere, Bart I have always felt, that of those who wrote and spoke most strongly against the course I had taken in South Africa, some did so in blind reliance on party leaders, and all from very imperfect knowledge of facts, and I felt sure that in time, though not perhaps in my time, my country men here would do me the same justice as they who live in South Africa have done me from the first. Thus Sir Bartle Frere wrote to a friend about a year before his death. To do him this justice, nothing but a plain statement of facts is needed. That such a statement was not and could not be made in his lifetime is due to several causes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

E Childers, Vol. 1 of 2: 1827-1896 One of the chief difficulties which I have encountered in carrying out the work was due to the fact that at the time of my father's death I was at the Cape, whence I was transferred to Malta; and I have only recently returned to England. These moves, and the consequent transport of many boxes of papers, have greatly delayed the completion of these volumes. I desire in the first place, to express my respectful thanks to Her Majesty the Queen for her gracious permission to publish her letters, also to his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge for a similar permission.
