Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life of George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham, a prominent figure in the turbulent English court during the 17th century. The author traces the duke's lineage, showcasing his noble heritage and the influence of his family on his early life. The book explores Buckingham's early involvement in the English Civil War, including the tragic death of his brother Francis during a skirmish near Kingston. The narrative then follows Buckingham's exile with Prince Charles (later King Charles II), his subsequent travels, and his eventual return to England. The book details Buckingham's substantial inheritance and his extravagant lifestyle, along with his significant collection of art, which included a Titian masterpiece valued at 5000 pounds. This collection, carefully preserved by Buckingham's loyal servant, eventually found its way to the Archduke Leopold and became a treasured part of his collection in Prague. The author highlights Buckingham's marriage to Mary, daughter of Lord Fairfax, a union that proved pivotal in restoring the monarchy. The book further examines Buckingham's political activities and his role in the restoration of King Charles II. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the lives of those caught up in the drama of 17th-century England, offering a nuanced portrait of a nobleman known for his wealth, his love of art, his penchant for extravagance, and his unwavering loyalty to the crown. Ultimately, the book illuminates the complexities of English politics during a time of significant upheaval.
