Sinopsis

''A Letter To Lord Ellenborough: From Lord Cochrane (1815)'' is a historical document written by Thomas Cochrane, a British naval hero, in 1815. The letter was addressed to Lord Ellenborough, who was the Governor-General of India at the time. In the letter, Cochrane defends himself against accusations of stock market fraud, which had led to his expulsion from the House of Commons and his imprisonment. Cochrane had been accused of conspiring to manipulate the stock market, but he maintained his innocence and argued that he had been the victim of a political conspiracy. The letter provides a detailed account of Cochrane?s version of events, as well as his arguments against the charges. The book is a fascinating insight into the political and financial machinations of early 19th century Britain, as well as the life of one of its most celebrated naval heroes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
