Memoirs of Field-Marshal the Duke De Saldanha, Vol. 1 of 2 by John Smith Athelstane de Carnota PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Memoirs of Field-Marshal the Duke De Saldanha, Vol. 1 of 2: With Selections From His Correspondence IN presenting this Biography to the public, the author is con scious that he owes many apologies to those who may become his readers. His apologies are, indeed, due, not for the subject, but for its authorship. He feels that the history of the Duke de Saldanha ought to interest not only the Marshal's country men, but also the English reader. It is impossible! But that many of those who lived for years in social intercourse with Saldanha, will welcome some account of his life; while, it is hoped, they will be led by their recollection of that intercourse to accept this Memoir with indulgence. Others there may be who may feel interested to know more of the life of that General and Statesman, whom they have seen hearing so many of those decorations - testimonials to his high character - which recorded the progressive stages of his meritorious career, from the simple but treasured memorials of his gallantry at Ensaco, to the last Grand Cross conferred upon him by His Holiness, Pope Pius the Ninth.
