Cornelia Knight, Lady Companion to the Princess Charlotte of Wales, Vol. 2 of 2 This consent came, and the article was prepared; but the Regent wished Princess Charlotte even then to waive it as a compliment to the House of Orange, but her Royal Highness persisted in claiming the article. Nearly a fortnight passed after everything appeared to be arranged, and her Royal Highness, seeing the Prince of Orange daily in presence of Miss Knight, often asked him what preparations were making with respect to a house, establish ment, (910. He always answered that nothing had been said to him, appeared to be ignorant, and did not then talk of taking a house himself. While the Prince of Orange was at Oxford, a letter came from one of Princess Charlotte's aunts, who is very intimate with the Regent, to say that she understood he meant, as soon as the Emperor and King of Prussia were gone, to write over for the Oranges and have the marriage celebrated as soon as possible. This alarmed Princess Charlotte, and she said she resolved to enter into a clear ex planation with the young Prince to avoid disputes afterwards.

Cornelia Knight, Lady Companion to the Princess Charlotte of Wales, Vol. 1 of 2 A book of this kind scarcely needs a sponsor. It carries the impression of its authenticity on every page. Afew words, however, may be said about the circumstances of its publication. In the expectation that I should find in them materials for an inte resting work, the papers from which these volumes have been compiled were given to me, some years ago, by the family into Whose hands they passed on Miss Knight's death. On examining them, I found that they consisted of a considerable number of journal-books, the dates of which covered more than half a century, and an unfinished autobiogra phical memoir, written principally on loose sheets of paper. The latter had obviously been commenced at a very late period of life, and had been inter rupted by death. The Journals, however, supplied all that was needed to complete the Memoir to the very end of the writer's life. Indeed, the conv tinuous Memoir had been written from the Diaries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth look into the lives of the six daughters of King George III of England. In the dying years of the 18th century, the corridors of Windsor echoed to the footsteps of six princesses. They were Charlotte, Augusta, Elizabeth, Mary, Sophia, and Amelia, the daughters of King George III and Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. Though more than fifteen years divided the births of the eldest sister from the youngest, these princesses all shared a longing for escape. Faced with their father’s illness and their mother’s dominance, for all but one a life away from the seclusion of the royal household seemed like an unobtainable dream. The six daughters of George III were raised to be young ladies and each in her time was one of the most eligible women in the world. Tutored in the arts of royal womanhood, they were trained from infancy in the skills vital to a regal wife but as the king’s illness ravaged him, husbands and opportunities slipped away. Yet even in isolation, the lives of the princesses were filled with incident. From secret romances to dashing equerries, rumors of pregnancy, clandestine marriage and even a run-in with Napoleon, each princess was the leading lady in her own story, whether tragic or inspirational. In The Daughters of GeorgeIII, take a wander through the hallways of the royal palaces, where the king’s endless ravings echo deep into the night and his daughters strive to be recognized not just as princesses, but as women too. Praise for The Daughters of George III “This fascinating look at the lives and times of the six daughters of George III and Queen Charlotte delivers an engaging read for enthusiasts of the royals and British history.” —Library Journal
