Book Description

Excerpt from Memoirs of the Queens of Prussia An account of the Lives of the Queens of Prussia cannot fail to possess some interest for the English reader, independent of all merit of composition, at a moment when England is about to bestow the eldest of her royal daughters upon the Crown Prince, and, in all human probability, the future Sovereign of that country. With the greater confidence, therefore, I now lay before the public the following "Memoirs of the Queens of Prussia;" the materials for which have in great part been selected from the memoirs of contemporary authors, the despatches of foreign ambassadors, &c. during a residence of some time in the dominions of the King of Prussia. And let me here offer my sincere thanks to all those who have contributed to aid me in my researches, or to lighten my labours by their kindness, during my sojourn in Germany.
