1917 letter calling for Britain to negotiate peace with Germany in World War I
Henry Charles Keith Petty-Fitzmaurice, 5th Marquess of Lansdowne
The "Lansdowne Letter" called for Britain to negotiate a peace with Germany during the First World War. It was published by a London newspaper and written by Henry Petty-Fitzmaurice, 5th Marquess of Lansdowne, a former foreign secretary and war minister. Lansdowne came under withering criticism, with few supporters, and the government rejected the proposal.
