Excerpt from Life and Letters of the Right Honourable Robert Lowe, Viscount Sherbrooke, G. C. B., D. C. L., Etc, Vol. 2 of 2: With a Memoir of Sir John Coape Sherbrooke, G. C. B., Sometime Governor-General of Canada Somewhere in the fifties, about 1850 - 52, I was one of the youngsters who went the Northern Circuit. 'coming in one day late to dinner (as I often did), and looking for a place, I saw a white - haired man with a vacant chair each side of him. I sat down and got into conversation with my neighbour, whom I found pleasant. The next day the same thing occurred - the same man was Seated alone, and I sat by him. We again talked; I was charmed with him, but hadn't an idea who he was. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Sometime Governor-General of Canada The small amount of time and pains which Lord Sherbrooke bestowed on his Autobiography may be gathered from a perusal of the brief personal memoir which forms the Intro duction to these volumes. When, however, it was represented to him that his share in the formation of contemporary history would be of interest to the public, he readily assented to the preparation of this work, and rendered whatever assistance was in his power. It is true that the imperfect measure of sight, which he had once enjoyed, had entirely deserted him but he retained his lifelong habit of attention to every subject presented to him, and his criticism on what was read was always valuable and suggestive of further sources of information.

Mark Twain once famously said "there was but one solitary thing about the past worth remembering, and that was the fact that it is past and can't be restored." Well, over recent years, The British Library, working with Microsoft has embarked on an ambitious programme to digitise its collection of 19th century books. There are now 65,000 titles available (that's an incredible 25 million pages) of material ranging from works by famous names such as Dickens, Trollope and Hardy as well as many forgotten literary gems , all of which can now be printed on demand and purchased right here on Amazon. Further information on The British Library and its digitisation programme can be found on The British Library website.

The small amoant of time and pains which Lord Sherbrooke bestowed on his Autobiography may be gathered from a perusal of the brief personal memoir which forms the Introduction to these volumes. When, however, it was represented to him that his share in the formation of contemporary history would be of interest to the public, he readily assented to the preparation of this work, and rendered whatever assistance was in his power. It is true that the imperfect measure of sight, which he had once enjoyed, had entirely deserted him ;but he retained his lifelong habit of attention to every subject presented to him, and his criticism on what was read was always valuable and suggestive of further sources of information. It is superfluous to record the obligations I am under to the relations and intimate friends of Lord and Lady Sherbrooke. Their kindly aid has been invaluable; and without it, the accomplishment of my task would have been impossible. Those who knew Lord Sherbrooke well regarded him with a sincere affection which made their co-operation a labour of love.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Martin was born in Woolwich, Kent, England, the son of George Martin and his wife Eleanor, née Hill.
Martin was educated at Street Mark"s School, Fitzroy and later matriculated at the University of Melbourne in February 1868.
The family migrated to Australia in 1852, arriving in Melbourne that Christmas. Martin worked in the post office from 1865 to 1883. However he was also a casual writer in this period.
Having established the Melbourne Review with Henry Gyles Turner in 1876, Martin edited the publication for six years.
In 1883 Martin moved to London amid controversy in a divorce case. He became a journalist and wrote regularly for the Pall Mall Gazette.
Martin was the satirist of the "Australasian Group" - who regarded themselves as exiles - but retained an interest in Australian literature and other affairs The opening essay in this work, entitled "Robert Lowe in Sydney," formed the nucleus of the undertaking on which Martin later worked on—the complete political biography of Lord Sherbrooke.
Among other literary efforts in London may be mentioned "Oak-bough and Wattle-blossom," the first of those collective stories by "Australians in England" of which there are now quite a series.
"Over-the-Sea Stories for the Children of Two Worlds" a profusely illustrated gift-book, is also a collection by Martin. Martin married a widow, Harriette Anne Bullen (daughter of Doctor John Moore Cookesley) on 11 January 1886 in London. Together they wrote verse and organised the publications of expatriate Australians in various periodicals.
Martin"s health deteriorated and he moved to Tenerife, Canary Islands where he died on 15 February 1902.
