With Extracts from their Correspondence. 1. Admiral Sir G. Broke-Middleton, Bart., C.B. 2. Admiral Lord Dunsany. 3. Admiral of the Fleet, Sir Provo Wallis, G.C.B. Small 8vo. Original navy cloth, gilt, slightly worn. 71 pp. Privately Printed, Beccles.
Rev. Brighton later wrote Provo Wallis’ biography. In this volume, there is more personal and family reminiscence on the first two admirals, but naval matters - Chesapake and Shannon - feature largely in the section on Provo Wallis.@*This copy is inscribed: “For Dear Uncle, With the best wishes of his Nieces, E. M. Wallis & B. T. Norris, Nov. 16th/90 {1890}”. Loose notes on the family included with the book show that “Uncle” was in fact Provo Wallis himself.
