Notes:

Letters purporting to be from Queen Caroline to Princess Charlotte.

"This work ... professes to embrace the matter of the abominable and slanderous volume known by the name of 'The delicate investigation.' ... The editor pledges himself that his work is formed upon the basis of the suppressed book, which was placed for that express purpose in his hands; and he also declares that the original facts and interesting anecdotes with which his pages are illuminated, are ... authentic and incontrovertible. ..."Preface, p. iv-v.
