""Memoranda of a Residence at the Court of London"" is a book written by Richard Rush that provides a detailed account of his time spent as the American envoy to the Court of St. James's from 1819 to 1825. The book is divided into two parts: the first part covers Rush's official duties and interactions with British officials, while the second part focuses on his personal experiences and observations of British society and culture.Throughout the book, Rush provides insights into the political and social climate of early 19th century England, including discussions of the country's economic policies, the state of the monarchy, and the role of the aristocracy. He also shares anecdotes about his interactions with notable figures such as King George IV, Prime Minister Lord Liverpool, and the Duke of Wellington.In addition to providing a historical account of Rush's time in London, the book also offers an intimate look at the life of a diplomat during this period, including the challenges faced by those in the role and the strategies used to navigate diplomatic relations.Overall, ""Memoranda of a Residence at the Court of London"" is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of Anglo-American relations, as well as those interested in the social and political climate of early 19th century England.Including Negotiations On The Oregon Question And Other Unsettled Questions Between The United States And Great Britain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
