A compelling life story and shrewd analysis of King George III, who ascended the throne with his mother’s advice, “Be King, George” ringing in his ears. His scheming belied his nickname, “Farmer George;” this was a name George was given by satirists—a tribute to his seeming simple mindedness, but later George used the name to identify himself with the people.
