A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Thus the call comes to build up again the picture of past days. Grouped round a private memoir of the Reverend Edmund Nelson and his youngest daughter, this record has been compiled almost exclusively from the manuscripts of one branch only among his descendants. It is therefore from his and their point of view that the rest of the family are seen and their actions commented upon. I ts publication is due to the suggestion that, in so far as it relates to the distinguished member among them, it supplies a slight link between those works deahng with the public career of Admiral Lord Nelson, and the many sensational memoirs which have focussed so much attention upon one phase only in the last years of his life, somewhat to the exclusion of the less obtrusive family circle and affections, which influenced his character from the first and absorbed so much of his interest to the end.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
