'It is impossible to read a more entertaining book, & it very much exalts one's opinion of the author's ability. But what a picture he draws & exhibits in himself of human & of courtly nature. Was there ever such a parting dialogue as that between George 2 & his dying Queen'.

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: G. W. F. Howard, 7th Earl of Carlisle      Print: Book
