Roberts: A Memoir The practice of writing a memoir of a living public man scarcely stands in need of defence, since it has become of such common practice. Within recent years, the careers of Lord Beaconsfield and Mr. Gladstone, Lord Wolseley and Mr. Bright, have been given to the public during their lifetime; and the only question that arises, when considering the advisability of such a publication, - conceding the necessity of abstaining from publishing matter that would violate any confidences, or unduly cause pain to the living or the representatives of the dead, - would appear to have reference to the public demand in each particular instance. Such a question as applied to Sir Frederick Roberts must be unhesitatingly given in the affirmative. The military achievements of the gallant officer are great and undeniable, as a mountain open, palpable. They have received the unstinted acknowledgments not only of all classes of his countrymen, but of the highest professional authorities of the Continent.
