- Description
- Lewis pays attention to the extensive participation of aristocratic women in eighteenth-century British politics. These women created and preserved vast manuscript collections. Lewis taps into these sources to demonstrate how the social and political worlds of Georgian Britain interacted to give women an influential voice in politics that was previously unimagined.
