About This Item
London: Thames & Hudson, 1978. 1st edition. As New. octavo. hardback with dust jacket xxiii + 662pp., col. frontis., b/w pls., bibliog., index, ÔIn 1714 George Ludwig, the fifty-eight-year-old elector of Brunswick-Luneburg, became, as George I, the first of the Hanoverian dynasty to rule Britain. Until his death in 1727 George served as both elector of Hanover and British monarch. An enigmatic figure whose real character has long been concealed by anti-Hanoverian propaganda, George emerges in this groundbreaking biography as an impressive ruler who welcomed the responsibilities the accession brought him and set out to bring culture to what he considered the unsophisticated English nationÕ
