King George - Ein Königreich für mehr Verstand
The Madness of King George
His Majesty was all powerful and all knowing. But he wasn't quite all there.
The crown has always been hereditary, but sanity isn’t. In 1788 a king’s erratic behavior triggers a succession crisis when his physicians bungle mercury enemas and oat gruel. The royal family scrambles to keep the throne while the patient simply keeps raving about gooseberries.
