The book is written by Philip Wharton, a descendant of the Duke, and covers the Duke's life from his birth in 1698 to his death in 1731. The book provides an in-depth look at the Duke's early life, including his education, his political and social connections, and his involvement in the Jacobite rebellion of 1715. The Duke's later years are also covered, including his exile in Europe and his eventual return to England, where he became a prominent member of the political and literary circles of the time.In addition to the biographical information, the book also includes a selection of the Duke's writings, including his poetry, political tracts, and letters.
