A very unusual biography of the four brothers of the royal family during the Abdication crisis of 1936 as well as the war years until the death of George VI. Traces the self confidence and loyalties of the King and the Dukes of Gloucester and Kent from light hearted young men to their responsibilities in marriage and as soldiers and leaders of men. The war is seen as a tragedy for their cousins in Greece, Scandinavia and the Balkans in the greater tragedy of humanity. Very critical of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. Well researched and annotated with official records and illustrations.
