DEDICATED BY PERMISSION TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS

PRINCE ALBERT.

On the 21st of October will be published, Vol. 1., with fine Portrait,
in Bvo. (to be comprised in about 3 vols.), to range with the " Wel-
lington Despatches," of
TILE DESPATCHES AND LETTERS OF
ADMIRAL LORD NELSON.
Edited by Sir HARRIS NICOLAS, G.C.M.G.
Although numerous lives of the great naval hero have been written,
no attempt has yet been made to collect his Despatches and Letters,
and thus to render him, in a great degree, his own biographer. The
♦alue of such documents is shown by the publication of the Des-
patches of the Duke of Wellington, to which this work will be a fitting
companion. Important as are the illustrations of naval history,
which this collection will afford, during the most glorious period in
its annals, the chief interest for the public in general will consist in
the lights which it will throw on the private character of Nelson,
without the glitter of biographical encomium, or the mistaken zeal of
biographical suppressions.
