Excerpt from The Life and Letters of George Bancroft, Vol. 2
For the period of Bancroft's service in the English mission his correspondence supplies an abundant record of his political, social and scholarly activities. To publish all of it would be to produce a separate volume. Such a book has already been made from the letters of Mrs. Bancroft to her family, and they present so complete a picture of the social life to which Bancroft's official and personal position opened the doors that the preponderance of other interests in his own letters need occasion no regret. The purpose of the present chapter will best be served by presenting in chronological order such selections from the letters as seem to possess the greatest intrinsic importance and interest. Quite distinct from the letters he wrote from London to political and personal friends in America are those from Paris to Mrs. Bancroft, which shall form the second section of this chapter.
