Synopsis
Excerpt from The Diary of Sir John Moore, Vol. 1 of 2 Napoleon. In regard to that part of the war which concerned Moore, Napier had at his disposal very ample documents, Southey and Sir Walter Scott hardly any whatever. But as Napier was a fierce partisan, he could not resist mingling with the panegyric of his great hero the most passionate and often unfair denunciations of every act of Castlereagh and of Canning. To attack Moore was therefore supposed to be the duty of every good Tory. The tradition has come down to our own time, and has coloured with a strange bias the work of Mr. Oman, the latest historian of the war. If the report of a Scottish newspaper.

I am sorry that it will not reach you till that date has passed. You have known all the changes in the popular impressions about him. You remember the national enthusiasm which greeted the news of the hero's death. To that generation his career was familiar as a household word. It was not possible that all the details that were necessary to make it understood should have been set forth much before the present time. That lofty character easily lent itself to misrepresentation because it was not moulded to the pattern of the passing hour. I have a strong belief that the inherent strength of the figure as it comes out from his own casting will bear the shocks of time, I have done my best to clear away the extraneous matter that has settled on the grand statue. I hope I have not in doing so marred it with rude hands. Yours with the deepest respect F.

    Seller was fine, arrived promptly with good packaging and in perfect condition. But I should have asked questions about the book. It is really just a recreation of a collection of pages from old catalogues. I was hoping for more information & history of some of the Chickering models. This was not worth $18 to me. Would have been helpful if the seller had given examples of some pages.

It looked exactly like the description and I'm pleased with the value of it. Thanks for producing a quality product that is almost impossible to find now. Most of all, thanks for making it right when it was wrong.
