5.0 out of 5 stars Triumph of Mediocracy, 16 Oct 2007
By z4 "z4" (Germany) - See all my reviews
A detail depiction of George's life. Everything from his political views, religious views, personal troubles etc are treated.

No genius but an average sort of guy, who ultimately was responsible for the lose of America through misjudgement; the disaster of his generation. It daunts on one reading the book that the lose of America made certain that from there on a British Empire would be a short lived thing.

Nevertheless against all odds and due to his pigheadedness, the French Revolution and Napoleon was resisted and subdued. Triumph and peace secured in the end.

Not an easy read but impressive piece of work.
