Excerpt from The Life and Times of George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham, Vol. 1 of 3: From Original and Authentic Sources NO complete life of this favourite of James I. And Charles I. Has hitherto appeared, except the biographical sketch by Sir Henry Wotton. That interesting account deserves all credit, from the character of its author; yet coming from one who owed Buckingham great obliga tions, it is more of a eulogy than a memoir; and is evidently written with a View to silence those slanderous attacks which not only pursued the Duke during his life, but continued after his death.
