HTML version by Al Haines. "The Days Before Yesterday" by Lord Frederic Hamilton is a memoir assembled during the early 20th century that delves into the author's personal recollections of his past, particularly the Victorian era and its societal quirks. The book draws from Hamilton's childhood experiences as the thirteenth child in a well-connected family, navigating the challenges and peculiarities of early life, while interacting with notable figures of his time including political leaders and artists, giving readers a glimpse into both personal and historical narratives. The opening of the memoir sets the stage with the author's whimsical and vivid recounting of his childhood fears, particularly the "Passage of Many Terrors," as he describes a daunting nighttime journey through his family's ancient home in Ireland filled with imaginary threats like crocodiles and hunchbacks. This whimsical trepidation serves as a backdrop to more serious commentary on the realities of Victorian life, including his family's interactions with prominent political figures such as Disraeli and his experiences in daily social life, establishing a rich tapestry of nostalgia and historical commentary that forms the memoir's foundation.
