With the centenary of the Napoleonic period interest in all that relates to that time has been stimulated. The inner history of great events is being constantly revealed, and fresh points of View presented by the publication of memoirs and biographies of an earlier generation. It is therefore hoped this collection of letters from Lord Burghersh's private and official correspondence may interest the general reader who, preferring fact to fiction, finds recreation in the personal records written by those who took an active part in moulding the destinies of nations.
