Book Description
Excerpt from John Hookham Frere and His Friends It is impossible to let this book go forth without trying to express my gratitude for the help and advice afforded by those whom I consulted while writing it. Mr. William Rossetti generously placed at my disposal the whole of the correspondence between his father and J. H. Frere, and his own valuable notes in explanation of it He also revised the MS. of Chapter XV. Some of Lady Erroll's letters have already appeared in Longman's Magazine under the title of "Love-Letters of a Lady of Quality." They are here reproduced by permission of Messrs. Longman. Temple Bar published selections from some other letters addressed to J. H. Frere as "An Ambassador's Letter-Bag." Mr. Murray has kindly allowed me to reprint any of Canning's letters that appeared in my article in the Quarterly Review for July 1897.
