COLERIDGE, ERNEST HARTLEY. Life of Thomas Coutts, banker. 2v il *$10 Lane
20–5660
The subject of this biography, one of the founders of the banking house of Coutts & Co., was born in 1735 and died in 1822. Business, financial, political and social events of his time enter into his life story. He was one of those who opposed the war with America and the subject is referred to frequently in his correspondence during that period. The biography is based on a large collection of mss which came to light in 1907 and it tells for the first time in full the story of Thomas Coutts’s romantic attachment for Harriet Mellon, whom he married in his eightieth year. The volumes are very fully illustrated and volume 2 has an index.
