Description
Excerpt from The Great Conde: A Life of Louis II De Bourbon, Prince of Condé
I take this opportunity of expressing my most sincere thanks to all who have helped me in my work. For the practical kindness and courtesy shown by M. Macon, Curator of Chantilly, and guardian of its priceless archives, I cannot be too grateful. To M. Omont, of the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, I owe a like acknow ledgment for his unfailing and ready help during my study of the manuscripts under his charge. In the parts of the work relating to military matters, I have had invaluable assistance from major-general Sir Alexander Godley, while the passages dealing with con temporary history have been kindly read and criticised by Mr. Geoffrey Headlam, of Eton College.
