Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Romance of Princess Amelia, Daughter of George III (1783-1810) Including Extracts From Private and Unpublished Papers While a study, drawn from original sources, representing the character, habits and surroundings of an English Princess who died a hundred years ago, may fairly be considered as a contribution to domestic history, it seems peculiarly appropriate on the centenary of the death of the amiable Princess Amelia to tell the true story of her life, and of her attachment to General Charles FitzRoy, if only to clear away misconceptions which have gathered around her memory, and to rebut certain slanders which recently have been revived. The love-affair of this Princess was concealed by her family, as far as possible, from the world at the time of her death. She herself appears to have gloried in her innocent attachment, and certainly by the terms of her will desired to make her betrothal a matter of public knowledge. The suppression of her testamentary wishes by her family at the time of her death was, to say the least, ill-judged. Gossip and scandal were not the less busy with her name.
