A Hanover by any other name.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This was a great book about King Edward VII. Mr. St Aubyn has done his research. This book is an excellent look into both the political and personal life of the long lived Prince of Wales and shortly King Edward VII. He was mistakenly compared to George IV as a pleasure seeking playboy, which he apparently enjoyed his position in life but once he was King he set the stage of an era. The Edwardian era. He was underemployed by his mother who truly was a Hanover and kept her heir as her predecessors did, far from the throne and duties of the monarchy. He and his wife provided a loving environment for their family and gave the people a royal to be proud of. Highly recommend this book.
