Description
Excerpt from The Victorian Chancellors, Vol. 2 of 2
The Life of Lord Westbury,'' by Mr. T. A. Nash} is also a biography of very high merit, alike in form and substance. It was undertaken, we are told in the preface, at the request of members of the Chancellor''s family, who placed at the writer''s disposal the whole of their father''s papers. The constant references to it in the text are an inadequate measure of the extent of my indebtedness, and it is with real regret that I am com pelled to take a less favourable View than that presented by Mr. Nash of one who in point of sheer intellect is excelled by none of the Victorian Chancellors.
