|

In 1913, Sir John Knox Laughton published 29 letters of Nelson alongside of letters by Sir William and Lady Hamilton, and other relatives, from the collection of Frederick Barker (d in 1908).
Many of these letters were used by Clarke and McArthur in their (very ponderous) Life of Nelson but heavily "edited".
This little book is very scarse today so I added it to the website at http://www.ageofnelson.org/Document13.html |
