Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Court Life Below Stairs: Or London Under the Last Georges, 1714-1760 In the following pages an attempt is made to give a reliable and, it is to be hoped, interesting picture of the manners, habits, and morals of the English Court under the reign of the two first Georges; and of the society - brilliant, witty, remarkable - which revolved around and too faithfully followed these royal models. As far as possible, the dry and already well-known facts of the politics of this period have been omitted, and are only referred to in cases where they have direct bearing on the personages and scenes described. No incident has been mentioned, no statement made, without authority, though as much as possible unimportant notes and trivial references have been omitted; and where it has been found admissible, descriptions are given in the language of the original narrators or of eye-witnesses.
