Book Description

Excerpt from Four Lectures on Subjects Connected With Diplomacy The first of these Lectures was delivered in 1860, the other three respectively in 1865, 1866, and 1867. They are printed in substance as they were delivered, with some occasional alterations. Important changes in the state of Europe have occurred during the past eight years. I have not however thought it necessary to cancel or alter references to current events, or expressions of opinion suggested by circumstances existing at the time; nor could this have been done without inconvenient disturbance of the context.
