Edward VIII Author:Frances Donaldson EDWARD VIII was heralded as the definitive biography of the ex-King and awarded the prestigious Wolfson Prize when it was first published in 1974. Since then no book on the subject has come close to Frances Donaldson's in scholarship or detachment and this re-issue also features the extra material added to the text in 1986.
Fascinating biography of how the playboy Prince of Wales (and later King of England) became the Duke of Windsor. Book includes a small, 3-level genealogical tree and 16 pages of photographs. Shows to what extreme a person would go for love.
