Portrait of Lord Campbell in Martineau’s Biographical Sketches
A critique of Miss Martineau’s portrait of Lord Campbell, arguing that his character shows little genius or heart and that his political maneuvering harmed the Whigs. The piece contrasts Campbell’s faults with Lyndhurst’s career, notes bias in the biography, cites scenes from Reform debates, and defends Lyndhurst’s legacy as a Tory at heart.
