H.M. Stationery Office, 1977 - Biography & Autobiography - 64 pages
"This portrait is intended, in a phrase of Erasmus, to provide 'not so much a picture as an outline sketch' of the character and career of a man long held inhigh esteem by Englishmen. Such originality as it may claim, therefore, reposes in interpretation and emphasis. My aim is to present a reliable introduction to a vast subject where others have written with greater authority, to whom I am indebted." -- Preface.
