Now in an archival quality (removable) Brodart cover. [From jacket flaps] Bowles, when in Parliament, was frequently "front page news", and his handsome features were a godsend to the cartoonists. Brilliant war correspondent in the first siege of Paris; revolutionary in weekly journalism (notably with The Lady, still going strong, and with his unique brainchild, the original Vanity Fair); certificated master mariner; builder and navigator of sea-going yachts; distinguished and dynamic Parliamentarian; authority on naval matters and national finance. He was also a successful campaigner against a measure which gravely hampered the work of the Royal Navy during the first two years of World War I and, perhaps most remarkable of all, the victor over the Bank of England in a famous action during which he scorned the aid of professional lawyers. Bowles's close friends included General Gordon, Lord Randolph Churchill and Lewis Carroll. Their letters, many never before published, show that his friendship was greatly valued. He once described himself as a "conspicuous mediocrity", but in fact he possessed outstanding talents and there were no half measures about anything he undertook. . . . Contents: 1.
