Leslie also explores George's personal life, including his turbulent marriage to Caroline of Brunswick and his numerous affairs. The book is well-researched and provides a detailed account of the events and people that shaped George's life and reign. It is a comprehensive and engaging read for anyone interested in British history or the lives of its monarchs.1926. The author attempts to dispel the inaccuracies and fallacies surrounding the life of this King, who was considered by many previous authors to be a �������bad King.������� Whatever his private faults and public mistakes, George IV never possessed the Satanic genius to be a consistent rogue and reveler, nor did he wreck the State committed to him. A king must be judged by his kingdom, and during his reign George IV rebuilt Windsor castle, summoned Brighton out of the sands and capitalized London among Capitols. A great work telling the story of this King as it should be told.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
