Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Spencer Compton, Eighth Duke of Devonshire, Vol. 2 of 2: With Portraits and Other Illustrations
Don't bother yourself to answer this or any letter I may feel moved to write to you. I daresay Granville will show me your letters. What I want to impress on you is that, in my opinion, if you do not invent and insist upon a policy, we are done, not only as a Government but as a country. You know enough of the helplessness of the Cabinet on this question to know that we shall never make up our minds on a mere report.
