In the uproarious finale of A’Beckett’s Comic History, Charles Featherstone hilariously captures Britain’s chaotic descent following Queen Anne’s reign. Experience the antics of thick-accented German kings, ministers auctioning off the nation's dignity, and a society consumed by get-rich-quick schemes. This tale introduces George I and II, alongside the cunning Robert Walpole, who navigates a world rife with folly—from the South Sea Bubble to the comical escapades of Bonnie Prince Charlie. Perfect for fans of witty historical satire, this entertaining narrative reveals that Britain’s so-called "Enlightenment" was often just a series of blunders and farcical misadventures.
