The diary covers a period from 1753 to 1832. John Beaumont was the grandfather of John Pitt (Tears from the Past).
It tells a story of adventure, love, tragedy, and grief, through the eyes of a privileged gentleman.
"After reading excerpts from my grandfather's dairy, I have come to the realisation, that he had a most interesting life. He had taken many risks, which I feel I would not have had the courage to parallel, with the same enthusiasm. I also discovered that he had loved my grandmother very much, and did what he had to do. I do not disagree with his choices, as I would have been tempted to carry out those decisions myself. He was a courageous man, that paid a price for his errors, but took responsibility for his deeds. I only knew him for a short time, but have fond memories, that will remain with me forever. I am proud to be his grandson, and hope that anyone who reads about his life, from his own thoughts, will at least admire his intentions."
John Pitt (1853)
