| Summary | "The Memoirs of Count Grammont — Volume 03" by Count Anthony Hamilton is a historical account written in the late 17th century. The narrative follows the Chevalier de Grammont, a French nobleman, as he navigates the intricate social life of the English court during the Restoration period, highlighting themes of love, rivalry, and courtly intrigue. At the start of the memoir, the Chevalier de Grammont arrives in England, intrigued by its court after the restoration of Charles II. He reflects on his past visit during a tumultuous period under Protector Cromwell, contrasting it with the lively atmosphere of the monarchy's return. As he becomes immersed in the court's affairs, he encounters a gallery of characters, including the King, the Duke of York, and several prominent ladies, whom he admires and aspires to win over. The opening delves deeply into the court's dynamics, the beauties and the complexities of love, setting the stage for the Chevalier's romantic adventures and the rivalries that ensue, particularly surrounding the captivating Miss Hamilton, who captures his heart.
