A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Mv DEAR Miss Dallas; All lovers of literature, and especially all students of history, will, I am sure, hail with pleasure the publication of your fathers diaries of the events of his daily life at the courts of Russia and Great Britain, which are soon to appear under the editorial auspices of his daughter. His observation of affairs and his experiences, diplomatic and personal, while Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary at the courts of two of the greatest powers of Europe, cannot fail to be of much interest to the public, while all who knew him, and especially all who, like myself, had the good fortune to be honoured with his friendship and his confidence, will see in these (pages the reflected image of a personality at once stately and genial, robust and refined, and equipped not only with the learning which befits a scholar, but also with I all the graces and accomplishments which add such a charm to learning and to power, wheresoever they are found, when theyare conjoined with them.
