The English writer Robert Charles Dallas (1754 1824) was a relative
by marriage of Lord Byron (1788 1824), with whom he maintained a
'frequent' correspondence between 1808 and 1814. As a friend and
the editor of some of Byron's poems, Dallas had been entrusted with
several of the poet's personal letters. First published in France
in 1825, this book contains letters Byron wrote to his mother while
travelling across Europe as a young man, his correspondence with
Dallas, and Dallas' 1824 'Recollections' of the poet. It includes a
long statement by Dallas's son, describing the disputes that arose
between Dallas and Byron's executors concerning the publication of
the letters. Intended by Dallas as a 'whole faithful memoir' of
Byron's life during the period of their correspondence, this book
provides a vivid portrait of the poet and reveals how he was
perceived by a close, though much older, friend.
