Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Royal Princesses of England: From the Reign of George the First One of the most ill-fated marriages recorded in the annals of history was that which gave to this throne a line of sovereigns of the House of Hanover. George Augustus, Elector of Hanover, inherited the crown Of England in right Of his mother, Sophia, to whom, in failure of her own issue, it was bequeathed by Queen Anne. That aged and intellectual Princess did not live to wear it herself, for she preceded Anne to the tomb; and on the Queen's death, in 1714, George, Elector Of Hanover, came over to England, and assumed the crown.
