The author attempts to present a fair portrait of Wellington whose reputation in the past has been under partial eclipse and believes the least admirable traits in his character have been unduly emphasized such as his being harsh, unsympathetic, ungrateful, without strong affection, whether as a son or father; taking all to his own credit, passing on little praise and fame to those who chiefly helped him to his great successes. |
