Description
Memoirs of Emma Lady Hamilton is a biographical book written by Emma Hamilton herself, detailing her life and experiences. Emma Hamilton was a famous English socialite and mistress of Admiral Horatio Nelson during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The book is a first-hand account of her life, including her childhood, her rise to fame and fortune, her relationships with important figures of the time, and her eventual downfall.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of Emma Hamilton's life. The first chapter details her early years, including her childhood in Cheshire and her early career as a dancer and performer in London. The subsequent chapters discuss her relationships with various important figures of the time, including her marriage to Sir William Hamilton, her affair with Horatio Nelson, and her friendships with other notable figures such as the Duke of Queensberry and the Duchess of Devonshire.Throughout the book, Emma Hamilton provides candid and often scandalous insights into the lives of the wealthy and influential people of her time. She also offers her opinions on the political and social issues of the day, including the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars.The book was originally published in 1891, several years after Emma Hamilton's death, and includes a preface by her son, Sir Charles Greville. It is considered an important historical document and a fascinating insight into the life and times of one of the most famous women of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
