Holme Thea. Caroline. a Biography of Caroline of Brunswick.
London Hamish Hamilton 1979 1st EDITION Hardback Very Good Very Good
D/W is un-clipped, a nice tight and clean copy. Caroline of Brunswick, the scandaloue wife of the future George IV, is one of history's problems. Since her death in 1821, many have tried to understand her, to make her a sympathetic character, a heroine. She defeats every effort: there is an oddity about her which is not endearing, and no sooner has one assembled her good qualities - her generosity, her courage, her kindness - than one is confronted by an utterly unforgivable piece of callousness, or mischief, or immorality. A fascinating biography.
