The First Iron Lady: a Life of Caroline
Description
History has forgotten Caroline of Ansbach, but in her lifetime she was compared to Elizabeth I and considered Britains cleverest queen consort. This magnificent biography charts the career of a highly intelligent, able woman who bolstered the unsteady reign of her husband, George II, acting as regent during his frequent sojourns in Hanover. With distinction and elan, she promoted science, music, literature and garden design; and, with cynical realism, wielded more power than any subsequent royal consort.
