He was the twentieth centurys Prince Charming. Handsome, elegant, quickwitted, charismatic, and an intimate friend of the most powerful and brilliant people of his day, he had everything youth and beauty could hope forincluding fabulous wealth and claim to the English throne. Then, a mere eleven months after becoming King, Edward VIII threw everything away to marry the woman he lovedWallis Simpson, an American divorcee.In this superbly written biography, Philip Ziegler, author of the highly praised biographies Diana Cooper and Mountbatten paints a graceful, balanced, and utterly mesmerizing portrait of the life and times of Edward VIII. Drawing on Edwards extremely frank and explicit diaries and his two thousand love letters (long assumed to have been destroyed), Ziegler shows us the man he truly was.
