Description: Wellington by Lady Jane Wellesley, Jane Wellesley Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A highly personal, anecdotal family memoir of the Wellington legacy reissued in time for the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo in June 2015. Publisher Description Reissued for the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo. The first Duke of Wellingtons victory at Waterloo in 1815 is remembered as one of our nations greatest triumphs and, two hundred years on, the Iron Duke is still very much a public figure. But here, Jane Wellesleys family memoir paints an altogether more intimate and compelling portrait. Jane journeys through the past, unearthing memories and secrets to illuminate her family tree. It is a saga peppered with fascinating characters: the 2nd Duke was a full-time eccentric and had his lawnmower pulled by an elephant; the 7th Duke, Janes grandfather, worked for MI6; and Janes grandmothers involvement with writer Vita Sackville-West created ripples in the Bloomsbury set as well as her marriage. The Wellesley story shows how Wellingtons descendants have lived on in the light of their ancestors fame, and how a family is so much more than the history of one man. Author Biography Jane Wellesley is a BBC producer. This is her first book.
