"Entertaining and insightful, this four-volume history will delight history buffs. Queen Anne died without an heir, bringing to the throne George I, of the German House of Hanover. Author Justin McCarthy [and his son] examines the lives and reigns of the four Georges and William IV, whose death ended the personal union of Britain and Hanover." - unsigned Apple review.
