Nelson's Lady Hamilton (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Nelson's Lady HamiltonBefore the reader as her own impulsive, exclamatory letters, and the various tributes to her charm and ability which abound in the Memoirs and journals of the period. Therefore these have been used freely. For permission to reprint the two letters from Horatia Nelson Ward to Sir Harris Nicolas, which are given in Chapters XIII. And XV., and which have only recently come to light, I am indebted to Mr. E. S. P. Haynes, the grandson of Sir Harris Nicolas. No one can write upon Lady Hamilton Without expressing gratitude to Mr. Walter Sichel for that Life of her, which is a perfect treasure house of knowledge and research. Among other books to which I am specially indebted are Mr. H. C. Gutteridge's invaluable volume on Nelson.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
