Excerpt from Emma, Lady Hamilton IN attempting this theme, I found that to do it real justice, both from the personal and historical point of View, I must perforce and in great measure begin afresh. Many new manuscripts of the highest importance have passed into the national collection during about the last twenty years. And apart from these, much new and weighty evidence exists. Much casts new lights both on the character of Lady Hamilton, the whole story of her life, and the history of Naples. Much has remained unknown or unnoticed both in contemporary manuscripts and con temporary books, research into which is needful if a living picture is to be formed; for by such means alone we are enabled to view things from the inside, to get, as it were, behind the scenes, and close up to the persons. Two at least among many manuscript collections in the British Museum are new in their revelations, and have escaped attention.

Excerpt from Emma, Lady Hamilton: An Old Story Retold Old stories re-told have ever a charm to interest the people of a later day. As the world rolls on, each generation leaves some few Whose lives have shone out with a clearer light, marking a record for themselves, while the memories of those who ran the race of life alongside them fade into oblivion. NO story so attractive, both to tale-teller and auditor, as the relation of incidents in the life of a beautiful woman: and, standing supremely above the people of her day, was one who, with smile and wile, ruled the destinies of great nations, a one-time cottage beauty, known to fame as Emma, Lady Hamilton. So many articles have been written to the prejudice of this won derful woman, that the present undertaking is attempted in the endeavour to produce her Character in a more pleasing light; the facts introduced having foundation in correspondence gathered from one source and another, which, it will be admitted, is a good groundwork for a display of truth.

Excerpt from Memoirs of Emma, Lady Hamilton, the Friend of Lord Nelson and the Court of Naples "Among the lovely faces that haunt history none, surely, is lovelier than that of Emily Lyon, who abides undying as Emma, Lady Hamilton. Yet it was never the mere radiance of rare beauty that entitled her to such an empire over the hearts and wills of several remarkable men and of one unique genius, or which empowered a girl humbly bred and basely situated to assist in moulding events that changed the current of affairs. She owned grace and charm as well as triumphant beauty; while to these she added a masculine mind, a native force and sparkle; a singular faculty, moreover, of rendering and revealing the thoughts and feelings of others, that lent an especial glamour to both beauty and charm." Walter Sichel thus strikes the keynote to the remarkable life-story here presented - a story which transcends the bounds of romance and fascinates and baffles the reader by turns. Indeed, no two critics of this famous beauty and confidante of Lord Nelson have ever agreed as to her place in history. To one she is an adventuress, luring Nelson on by the sheer power of her physical charm; to another, she is his guiding star, his inspiration; while others see in her merely an astute politician, eager for power. To quote Mr. Sichel again: "It will be found that Lady Hamilton, by turns fulsomely flattered and ungenerously condemned, was a picturesque power and a real influence.

Excerpt from Memoirs of Emma Lady Hamilton: With Anecdotes of Her Friends and Contemporaries Who combined with the acknowledged charms of her person mental powers of no common range and ver satility, is the principal reason for the republication of her much-maligned Memoirs, with corrections and annotations. The story of her wonderfully chequered career from her cradle to her grave, and her connection with the greatest naval commander the world has ever seen, is as attractive and thrilling as a romance, and will serve for all time to point a moral, or adorn a tale. The first edition of the Memoirs of Lady Hamilton, by an anonymous author, was published by H. Colburn in 1815, and a second edition, corrected and enlarged, a few weeks later in the same year. The present edition is a reprint of the second, with the exception that a long introduction, written in the most prosy style of.

Excerpt from Emma, Lady Hamilton: A Biographical Essay With a Catalogue of Her Published Portraits So it was with Lady Hamilton. There is no need to white wash her character. She was a woman of warm heart and passions, a woman of perfect beauty, and therefore fine game for the hunter; she was frail, and she fell. But let us give her the fair play which she did not get in her lifetime, nor afterwards. Like many another innocent country girl who came to London in a humble situation, her fresh beauty and her ingenuousness made her an easy prey for a scoundrel with an easy conscience and a fondness for a pretty face. But who will hurl a stone at his victim and let the man go scot free? Rather one's admirationmust go out to the girl who, in spite of an early experience in the wickedness of the world and the selfishness of men, kept so much of her innocence, so much natural affection, such an excellent good heart, such real purity of mind, as Amy Lyon, afterwards Emma, Lady Hamilton, exhibited for the best part of her life.

Excerpt from Nelson's Lady Hamilton Before the reader as her own impulsive, exclamatory letters, and the various tributes to her charm and ability which abound in the Memoirs and journals of the period. Therefore these have been used freely. For permission to reprint the two letters from Horatia Nelson Ward to Sir Harris Nicolas, which are given in Chapters XIII. And XV., and which have only recently come to light, I am indebted to Mr. E. S. P. Haynes, the grandson of Sir Harris Nicolas. No one can write upon Lady Hamilton Without expressing gratitude to Mr. Walter Sichel for that Life of her, which is a perfect treasure house of knowledge and research. Among other books to which I am specially indebted are Mr. H. C. Gutteridge's invaluable volume on Nelson.

Excerpt from Nelson's Legacy: Lady Hamilton, Her Story and Tragedy Mrs. Cadogan did not long survive her husband. She died before her little Henry's tottering baby feet had learnt to stand firm, but not before she had directed them on the right path and shown him a light by which to steer his wavering course. He knew, already before the death of his mother, that he must not hurt other people, and that he must be gentle as she was gentle. SO much of the rules of conduct she inculcated in him. Afterwards he strove to interpret them in action, imperfectly perhaps, even incorrectly. But Provi dence having removed her before she had carried his education farther, he was left to the care and tutelage of a man who, never having known the joys of fatherhood, lacked, and was unable to acquire, that sympathetic understanding of the development of youthful character which is one Of fatherhood's natural attributes. Mr. George Cadogan was, nevertheless, one Of the worthiest of his sex, and if the enunciation of abstract principles had been sufficient to form an entirely virtuous character, his nephew could not have been committed to a more desirable pre ceptor. Henry was an obedient pupil, somewhat unchildlike, and apt to melancholy. In truth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
