Spine, covers & corners somewhat worn & slightly faded. ; 20 x 13.3 x 1.2 cms; 96 pages; "The Blackmailing of the Chancellor" presents a series of intimate, previousl…y unpublished letters written by Harriette Wilson to her confidant Lord Brougham, the Lord High Chancellor of England. In these correspondences, Wilson candidly recounts her personal encounters with influential figures and reveals how these liaisons were exploited through schemes of blackmail. The letters not only expose the deeply personal vulnerabilities of individuals within high society but also illuminate the intricate and often covert power dynamics of the era. Through her frank admissions and detailed observations, Wilson provides a provocative insiderâs perspective on the blend of scandal, seduction, and political intrigue that characterized her time.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. xii, 350, [2] pages. Includes Preface, Abbreviations, Introduction, Footnotes. Note on Sources and Editing of the Letters, Palmerston's Letters to Laurence and Elizabeth Sulivan, and Index. Laurence Sulivan (1783-1866) was a philanthropist, statesman and D…eputy Secretary at War. Laurence Sulivan was also Palmerston's brother-in-law. Unless otherwise stated, all of the letters are addressed to Laurence Sulivan. They usually begin "My dear Sulivan" and end, in the early years, "Adieu My dear Sulivan', often with some such addition as 'pray remember me to Mr. and Mrs. S. & believe me yours affectionately', or, in later years, simply 'Yrs affly Palmerston'. With a few exceptions, these formalities have been omitted, and the styles of dates and places of writing have been standardized. In all other respects the effort has been made to preserve the original. Abbreviations and variations of spelling in particular have been retained. Editorial insertions in the text are italicized and placed within square brackets. These include addresses and dates supplied, from internal or other evidence, by the editor. Palmerston's punctuation, however, defies exact reproduction. Since there appears to be no significance whatever in his famous but random resort to capital letters, these have not usually been retained. When combined with his equally random use of commas, colons, and dashes, they also make it very difficult to discern when the end of a sentence or a paragraph is intended. The punctuation has therefore been adapted, where necessary, to render the text more intelligible. Henry John Temple, 3rd Viscount Palmerston, KG, GCB, PC, FRS (20 October 1784 - 18 October 1865) was a British statesman who served twice as Prime Minister in the mid-19th century. Palmerston dominated British foreign policy during the period 1830 to 1865, when Britain stood at the height of its imperial power. He held office almost continuously from 1807 until his death in 1865. He began his parliamentary career as a Tory, defected to the Whigs in 1830, and became the first prime minister from the newly-formed Liberal Party in 1859. He was highly popular with the British public. Henry Temple succeeded to his father's Irish peerage (which did not entitle him to a seat in the House of Lords, leaving him eligible to sit in the House of Commons) as the 3rd Viscount Palmerston in 1802. He became a Tory MP in 1807. From 1809 to 1828 he served as Secretary at War, organizing the finances of the army. He first attained Cabinet rank in 1827, when George Canning became Prime Minister, but like other Canningites, he resigned from office one year later. He served as Foreign Secretary 1830-1834, 1835-1841, and 1846-1851. In this office, Palmerston responded effectively to a series of conflicts in Europe. In 1852 Aberdeen formed a coalition government. The Peelites insisted that Lord John Russell be Foreign Secretary, forcing Palmerston to take the office of Home Secretary. As Home Secretary Palmerston enacted various social reforms, although he opposed electoral reform. When Aberdeen's coalition fell in 1855 over its handling of the Crimean War, Palmerston was the only man able to sustain a majority in Parliament, and he became Prime Minister. He had two periods in office, 1855-1858 and 1859-1865, before his death at the age of 80 years, a few months after victory in a general election in which he had achieved an increased majority. He remains as of 2020 the last British Prime Minister to die in office. Palmerston masterfully controlled public opinion by stimulating British nationalism. Although Queen Victoria and most of the political leadership distrusted him, he received and sustained the favor of the press and the populace, from whom he received the affectionate sobriquet "Pam". Palmerston's alleged weaknesses included mishandling of personal relations, and continual disagreements with the Queen over the royal role in determining foreign policy. Historians rank Palmerston as o.
