Frances Donaldson chronicles the life of Edward, Prince of Wales and briefly King of Great Britain, whose reign lasted less than a year before he renounced his throne in 1936 for the woman he loved, American divorcée Wallis Simpson. Drawing on extensive research, personal interviews, and previously unseen documents, Donaldson illustrates a complex portrait of a man caught between duty and desire, uncovering the political intrigue and personal turmoil that surrounded his controversial decision. Awarded the Wolfson History Prize, this authoritative and compelling biography remains the definitive account of Edward VIII's life, his relationship with Wallis Simpson, and the constitutional crisis that shook the British monarchy to its foundations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956213100763,"sku":"2026200011091-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/76542264-5088-4bf8-a5d8-23f082704292.png?v=1783499097","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200011091-secondhand-edward-viii","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
