Crown and Controversy - King George III and the American Revolution

King George the Third and the American Revolution is a special Crown & Controversy series crossover with the Palace Intrigue podcast, marking the two hundred fiftieth anniversary of the United States. Told from the British royal perspective, these episodes explore how the Revolution was experienced inside the monarchy—from Buckingham’s predecessors and Parliament to the court of King George the Third. Using contemporary sources and modern scholarship, the series examines the decisions, personalities, and royal drama behind one of history’s defining events. If you’ve heard the American version of the Revolution, this is the story from the other side of the Atlantic.
