She was the cleverest person at court and took care that her husband never suspected it. Caroline of Ansbach turned down an emperor to marry a Hanoverian prince, arrived in England as a foreigner, and governed the country in all but name through Walpole while George the Second shouted about his own importance. Wilkins begins with the German years.
