Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Lord John Russell, Vol. 1 of 2 My Dear Lady Russell, It is now more than two years and a half ago since you did me the honour of asking me whether I would undertake to write the life of Lord John Russell. In doing so you were good enough to promise that 'all private as well as public papers, letters, diaries, would be at [my] disposal.' You subsequently gave me an assurance that, in carrying out my work, I should be free from any conditions, and at liberty to deal with the subject in my own way, and in accordance with my own opinions. In now handing to you these volumes, I desire gratefully to acknowledge the manner in which you have fulfilled your promise and acted on your assurance. You have not only placed at my disposal the private and official papers which are either in your own or in your brother's (Mr. George Elliot's) custody; but you have given me access to diaries and letters of a much more private nature, which have proved of the utmost value to me, but which neither I nor any one - except those who are nearest and dearest to you - could have hoped to have had opened to him.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Lord John Russell, Vol. 2 of 2 On July 19, a few days after his return to the Foreign Office, Lord Palmerston wrote 'a despatch to Mr. Bulwer enumerating the available candidates for the Queen of Spain's hand - among whom be included Prince Leopold - and adding that her Majesty's Government only wished the choice to fall on the one most likely to secure the happiness of the Queen and the welfare of the Spanish people. He went on to denounce arbitrary government in Spain, and to intimate a hope that no time would be lost in returning to the ways of the constitution and to obedience to the law. It has perhaps never been noticed that this famous despatch was dated on a Sunday. Lord John received it just as he was going to church.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lord John Russell This monograph could not have been written - in the intimate sense - if the Dowager Countess Russell had not extended a confidence which, I trust, has in no direction been abused. Lady Russell has not only granted me access to her journal and papers as well as the early note-books of her husband, but in many conversations has added the advantage of her own reminiscences. I am also indebted in greater or less degree to Mrs. Warburton, Lady Georgiana Peel, Lady Agatha Russell, the Hon. Rollo Russell, Mr. G. W. E. Russell, and the Hon. George Elliot. Mr. Elliot's knowledge, as brother-in-law, and for many years as private secretary, touches both the personal and official aspects of Lord John's career, and it has been freely placed at my disposal. Outside the circle of Lord John's relatives I have received hints from the Hon. Charles Gore and Sir Villiers Lister, both of whom, at one period or another in his public life, also served him in the capacity of secretary. I have received some details of Lord John's official life from one who served under him in a more public capacity - not, however, I hasten to add, as Chancellor of the Exchequer - but I am scarcely at liberty in this instance to mention my authority.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Correspondence of Lord John Russell, Vol. 1: 1805-40 I was very fond of her, wrote her son in his old age. I used to call her in the morning, and from that hour during the whole of the day she showed me the utmost affection. I used to delight in reading to her Plutarch's Lives in the morning. His childhood was passed chieﬂy at Stratton Park, in Hampshire, and at Oakley, in Bedford Shire, till he was nine years old. In 1801 he was sent to school at Sunbury, where his two elder brothers and other boys, whose names have become well known in political life, were pupils. It was While he was there in 1801 that his mother wrote the touching letter alluded to. He had been at school only a short time when, on October 11th, he and his brother William heard of her sudden death. In the following year, March, 1802, his uncle Francis, fifth Duke, died by an accident. In 1803 Fox gave testimony to his qualities in the following words To be useful, whether to the public at large, whether to his relations and nearer friends, or even to any individual of his species, was the ruling passion of his life. The commemorative speech of Fox on this great and excellent man in the House of Commons is to my mind one of the noblest eulogies ever written. Copies of it, as printed by Ridgway, are rare.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Lord John Russell's Marriage Bill The crisis in which the Dissenters of Great Britain are now placed, is one of such consequence, that the effects of the measures which may be adopted will, in all probability, make themselves felt for ages. If, in point of wealth and social elevation, the Church sur passes the Dissenters, it is not less clear that the Dis senters have the advantage over the Church in num bers, activity and works of love. It is not, therefore, likely that Dissenters can any longer acquiesce in a to leration, which, in its every essence, however large and liberal, implies in the Church a right to domination, and in Dissenters a social pravity, justly punished by disqualification. In the matters at issue, the Church can no longer be permitted to plead a right to do Dis senters a wrong. We are not content that their vested interests should be spared, to the prejudice of our just claims. We ask not what they will give, but what we ought to have; not as much as we can wring from power, but as much as the decision of equity will allot. We disallow the argument drawn from prescription.

John Russell: A Memoir The Reader will be glad to know, as the Author is to state, that before a line of the first edition of this Memoir was published, the proof-sheets of every chapter were duly submitted to Mr. Russell himself, in order that any statement, affecting directly or indirectly the authenticity of his personal history, might be corrected, refuted, or substantiated by his own hand. That advantage the present edition lacks only in the final chapter; which is now added to wind up the history of his last years, and at the same time to record - as the Author does with unspeakable regret - the closing scene of his prolonged and active life.

Whether a similar honour awaits me, I know not; but this I know, that in thus publicly addressing you, I do no more than an act of duty. For religious con troversy I have no desire, and the controversy of politics I do not believe to be in harmony with the office of a Clergyman of the Church of England. There are, however, times, when it may be necessary to merge all individual considerations in the recogni tion of public good. This period has now arrived, and however commendable silence may be under other circumstances, I should look upon it now, as a positive dereliction of duty.

This book was released on 2020-10-16 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A VINTAGE DOG BOOKS CLASSIC REPRINT. Originally published in 1878 while the Rev. Russell was still alive, the book was then republished in 1883 with an extra chapter dealing with Russell's death and funeral. Both editions are now extremely scarce and expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS have republished the 1883 edition, using the original text and illustrations as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS series. The Rev. John Russell of Tordown in Devon is probably best known for his establishment of one of the worlds favourite dog breeds: The Jack Russell Terrier. This book is devoted to Russell's life as one of the great foxhunting characters in English history, and his passionate involvement with horses, hounds and terriers in his beloved Devon countryside. Although not a typical dog book this title will prove of great interest to anyone owning a Jack Russell Terrier, with its lively anecdotes of the history and origins of this game little dog. The author was a good friend of the Rev. Russell and before this book of memoirs was published he consulted his subject on the veracity of every line of its contents. John Russell's life and his love of sport is detailed from his early days at Tiverton School where he kept his first pack of hounds. For the next 75 years his life revolved around the Church and his love of hunting the fox, stag and hare. Upon his death in 1883 Russell left a legacy to the world not only of a hunting legend, but also the Jack Russell breed of terrier now loved by so many. This is a fascinating four hundred page read for any Jack Russell Terrier enthusiast or historian of the breed, and will also stand as an important record of the early days of hunting in the South West. Many of the earliest dog books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.Keywords: Jack Russell Terrier Dog Breeds Devon Countryside John Russell Rev John Passionate Involvement Books Series Breed Books Life As One English History Hounds Anecdotes Memoir Terriers Still Alive
