Excerpt from Life of Field-Marshal His Grace, Vol. 1 of 3: The Duke of Wellington
In submitting to the public the completed first volume of the Life Of Wellington, the Publishers confidently indulge the belief that their pledges to their Subscribers have been all redeemed; and that they will be considered as proceeding satisfactorily to the accomplishment of the design which they had proposed to themselves - that, viz., of producing such a Work as should render a striking and well illustrated record of the stirring events which distinguish the career of England"s Great Captain no longer a desideratum in the literature of his country.
