The book examines the tumultuous reigns of the last four British monarchs of the House of Hanover, focusing particularly on George IV and William IV, as well as significant political events and controversies of their times. This volume promises to delve into political reform, royal scandals, and societal shifts as Britain transitioned into the modern era. The opening of the book introduces the reader to the complicated circumstances surrounding the accession of George IV, commencing with a reflection on the ominous beginnings of his reign marked by illness and scandal.
