About this title

Synopsis

The book presents the 1806 inquiry into the conduct of Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales, conducted by four Special Commissioners (the Lords Erskine, Spencer, Grenville, and Ellenborough) and authorized by His Majesty. Reprinted from a suppressed authentic copy, the volume includes the Commissioners’ report, the deposition transcripts of key witnesses (Sir John and Lady Douglas, Charlotte Douglas, Bidgood, Cole, Lloyd, Wilson, Roberts, and others), letters from the Princess to the King and to the Lord Chancellor, and appendices containing further documents and narratives. It offers a comprehensive, primary-source account of a major Regency-era investigation into royal conduct, public scandal, and the legal-political processes of accountability within the British monarchy. The material sheds light on issues of privacy, gender, state interests, and the prerogatives of the Crown during a constitutional crisis.
