The book Ungrateful Daughters: The Stuart Princesses
Who Stole Their Father's Crown by Maureen Waller has
been requested. This books "treats the last days of
the house of Stuart as seen through the perspectives
of the major characters: James II, Mary of Modena,
Mary II, William of Orange, and Queen Anne. It begins
essentially with the restoration [of Charles II] and
ends with the handover of power to the Hanovers.
I've read the book--it's well-written, very readable,
and thoroughly researched, with many quotations from
letters and journals and papers of the time, as well
as Pepys diary observations.
