William IV, the Sailor King’, reigned for just seven years.
Rash and impetuous as a young man, he was sent to join
the navy by his father, George III, to bring him to order, but
he was overpromoted at an early age and saw his years of
active service marked by a series of calamities. He was also
notorious for his mounting debts and his long relationship
with the actress VIrs Jordan, with whom he had ten children.
Yet, as Roger Knight, one of Britain’s foremost naval
historians, shows in this concise and perceptive biography;
William’s bluff, unpolished sailor’s manner made him
popular with his people. Inheriting the throne amid strikes,
riots and the push for parliamentary reform, he helped see
the country through the great constitutional crisis of the era.
Despite his many flaws, he became a better king than sailor,
leaving the monarchy7 in a healthier state than he found it,
and enabling the smooth succession of his niece, Victoria
