“Thus did the twelfth child and youngest daughter in the female line descending from Mary, queen of Scots, married to the youngest of four brothers of a minor German principality, inherit what would become the throne of Great Britain. By some estimates as many as fifty-seven claimants by birth or sex had precedence over Sophia as heir. But this honor did not come solely by fate or luck. She had fought for it as surely as her mother had fought for Bohemia.”
