New Light on the Tyrant George III (2 Revised edition)

This volume contends that the old nineteenth and early twentieth century Whig historians as well as followers of Sir Lewis Namier have failed to understand George III as king because they haven't given sufficient consideration to his personal characteristics.

The king and his contemporaries believed he was insane, and this belief haunted the king, his family and the politicians.

The author believes George exhibited from childhood an obsessive personality, which explains his singlemindedness and his role as a monarch.
