WIVES OF GEORGE IV: THE SECRET BRIDE/ SCORNED PRINCESS (HB)

In Georgian England, few men were more fashionable or more eligible than George, Prince of Wales. The heir to George III's throne was a very good catch -or so it seemed. When Maria Fitzherbert married George in secret, she opened the door on three decades of heartbreak. Cast aside by her husband one minute, pursued tirelessly by him the next, the marriage was anything but blissful. Caroline of Brunswick was George's official bride. She might not have her husband's love, but the public adored her. In a world where radicalism was stirring, it was a recipe for disaster.
