Library Lecture & Dinner – Andrew Roberts

Andrew Roberts, biographer and historian, discusses his new biography

George III

Roberts convincingly portrays George as intelligent, benevolent, scrupulously devoted to the constitution of his country and (as head of government as well as head of state) navigating the turbulence of eighteenth-century politics with a strong sense of honour and duty. He was a devoted husband and family man, a great patron of the arts and sciences, keen (‘Farmer George’) to advance Britain’s agricultural capacity and determined that her horizons should be global.
