Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mrs. Fitzherbert and George IV, Vol. 1 of 2 The marriage of Mrs. Fitzherbert and George, Prince of Wales, afterwards George IV., is one of the romances of the later Georgian era. The extraordinary secrecy that surrounded the marriage, the fact that it was twice denied in the House of Commons, the persistence of the rumour that as setted its existence, the religious and constitutional questions involved by the secret marriage of the heir-apparent to the Throne with a Roman Catholic lady of good, but not Of royal, birth, combine to make it one of the most interesting events in the history of the House Of Hanover. Though references to Mrs. Fitzherbert, more or less correct, and more or less detailed, may be found in many letters, memoirs, and diaries of the period, there is a great lack of definite information concern ing herself and her marriage with the Prince of Wales. Her personality was a very elusive one, and her dislike to publicity deepened the mystery which surrounded her throughout her long life. Yet it was her intention that her authorised bio graphy should one day be written, and the truth of her marriage be told. To that end, in 1833.
