Lord Cloncurry's Memoirs.
[Lord Cloncurry was very much a "nearly" man. He nearly got himself into trouble in 1798 and 1803. However, since the Government had thoughtfully thrown him into prison, he eventually managed to rehabilitate himself. He seems to have the knack of annoying people in power and they, in turn, paid him back in kind whenever the chance arose. It's not a particularly interesting book to read - it was exceptionally boring to scan and proof - but id does add detail to the period 1790-1846. The first few pages are missing, so I can't tell when it was printed. KF. December 2000]
