Beschreibung

'Beauchamp' is an absorbing historical fiction by English novelist and historical writer G. P. R. James. Several real-life events and personalities of the 18th century, around which the story revolves, make this work historically significant. Excerpt from Beauchamp "It was in the reign of one of the Georges--it does not matter which, though perhaps the reader may discover in the course of this history. After all, what does it signify in what king's reign an event happened, for although there may be something in giving to any particular story "a local habitation and a name," yet there is nothing, strange to say, which gives one--I speak from my own experience--a greater perception of the delusiveness of every thing on earth, than the study of, and deep acquaintance with the annals of a many-lined monarchy."
