Excerpt from Noble Dames and Notable Men of the Georgian Era The reader will be in little danger of supposing me to imply that the Georgian era did not produce nobler dames and more notable men than any I have included in the present volume. Nevertheless, it may perhaps be advisable for me to point out that the subjects of the six character sketches here brought together have been selected because, in addition to the interest of their several life histories, they all exhibit some peculiarity, or quaintness, or eccentricity, of mind and behaviour, such as would have caused our forebears to dub them emphatically characters.

Excerpt from Wits Beaux and Beauties of the Georgian Era Before proceeding to give an account of some of the wits, beaux, and beauties of the Georgian Era it may be well to remind the reader of certain conspicuous differences between the "Town" and people of that day and the London and Londoners with which we are familiar. Some of these points of difference are only incidentally alluded to in the following pages; and the characters dealt with will perhaps be better understood if we provide ourselves at the outset with a clearer idea of their surroundings. It is well to remember that at the beginning of the Georgian Era a person might reach the open country from any part of the "Town" in a quarter of an hour. A wealthy suburb, indeed, had already sprung up in the West, as far as Hyde Park; but Chelsea, Paddington, and Marylebone, were fields, dotted here and there with farms and hamlets. North of Gray's Inn, all was open fields; and the residents of Bloomsbury enjoyed an uninterrupted view of the Highgate and Hampstead hills. Hackney, a favourite suburban retreat, was then growing into a small town. Hoxton and Islington were large villages.

Excerpt from Tragedy Queens of the Georgian Era My Lord, my sorrow seeks not your relief; You are not fit to judge a mother's grief: You have no child for an untimely grave, Nor can you lose what I desire to save.
