Scandal and Family: Queen Charlotte

In this episode we welcome Natalee Garrett to talk about the longest-serving Queen consort in British history: Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. A powerful personality behind the scenes, Charlotte overcame the hurdles of cutthroat public opinion, inhospitable in-laws and the madness of her husband to become one of the most important people in the Georgian royal family, and one of the most influential figures in the history of the British monarchy.Find Natalee's book at https://www.routledge.com/Queen-Charlotte-Family-Duty-Scandal/Garrett/p/book/9781032280417?srsltid=AfmBOoqh1yscn09Wh7i2mLh7T-K-IsGqO8ZAd0YDBFWD2DowxjnBF7cmSupport the show at https://www.patreon.com/c/thenapoleonicwarspodCheck out our links at https://linktr.ee/napwarspod
