Memoirs of the Courts and Cabinets of George the Third, Volume 1 is drawn from the original family documents of the Grenville and Buckingham circle, placing the reader at the centre of Georgian politics. It illuminates the court of George III, the rise and fall of ministries, and the correspondence of statesmen who governed Britain through revolution and war.
Compiled by the Duke of Buckingham and Chandos from his family’s papers, the work is a rich primary source on the personalities and intrigues of the late eighteenth-century court. It pairs the formal history of cabinets with the private letters that reveal how power really operated. This free EPUB download offers the first volume of the series.
