The first four Georges : England and her German kings, 1714-1730
The years 1714-1830 saw far-reaching changes in Britain, with expanding industry at home and increasing tensions with America and France. At the center was the monarch, whose power gradually eroded as the century wore on. This volume examines the history of eighteenth-century British politics, focusing on the Hanoverian kings.
"During the 18th and early 19th century the first four Georges were in a pre-eminent position to affect the history of England. This book, through an analysis of their characters, shows just what effect their reigns had on the history of their time."

"This analysis of the four kings shows just what effect their reigns had on the history of their time. Whether or not the loss of the American colonies is generally regarded as inevitable or the fault of the crown, the author shows that the influence of the monarchy was paramount in many other respects during the 116 years of their reigns."
