Graham Hamilton is an 1822 two volume novel by the Anglo-Irish writer Lady Caroline Lamb.[1] Her second novel to be published following her 1816 debut Glenarvon, it mocks and attacks the Whig high society in which she had been raised.[2] It was published anonymously by Henry Colburn. Her husband William (a future prime minister) assisted by proofreading the drafts.[3] Lamb was a noted figure of the Regency era who had caused a scandal with her tempestuous affair with Lord Byron. Her debut novel Glenarvon had been a thinly-disguised depiction of him.
