Summary: "Memoirs of Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough, and of the Court of Queen Anne" by Mrs. A. T. Thomson is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This work presents the life and influence of Sarah Churchill, the Duchess of Marlborough, highlighting her political maneuverings and relationships at the court of Queen Anne. The memoirs provide a personal perspective on the political climate of the time, particularly the fervent party spirit that characterized the era." The opening of the memoir introduces the key figures and political dynamics at play during the reign of Queen Anne, particularly focusing on the Duchess herself. Among the characters discussed is Lord Peterborough, whose contrasting qualities are explored alongside the Duchess’s role in political affairs. The early chapters outline her involvement in arranging advantageous marriages, shaping political alliances, and navigating the complexities of party affiliations, notably the Whigs and Tories.
