About this book
The Love of an Uncrowned Queen concerns Sophie Dorothea, identified on the title page as the consort of George I. The account introduces Count Philip Christopher Königsmarck as the second son of a Swedish nobleman, whose death left two sons and two daughters. The account describes the brothers as military adventurers and the sisters as court favourites, with all of the siblings conspicuous at the most brilliant courts of Europe.
A quoted correspondent accuses the recipient of timidity and unwillingness to take the least risk, while questioning whether the Elector ever spoke to the Electress. The correspondent warns that the Electress will bring the recipient to ruin sooner or later, despite being counted among the recipient’s best friends.
