À propos de cet audio

A retelling of the story of the Duke of Windsor - King Edward VIII, who gave up his throne to marry the woman he loved.

Using never before seen sources, Once a King is a fresh, revelatory and gripping insight into the Duke of Windsor - King Edward VIII - who gave up the throne to marry the woman he loved, twice divorced American Wallis Simpson.

Considering Edward VIII's travels and interests as Prince of Wales as well as his relationship with Wallis Simpson and the course of events leading up to his abdication and subsequent exile, Once a King offers a previously unexplored lens through which we encounter first-hand the hitherto concealed subtlety and raw emotion of two of the twentieth century's most iconic Royal figures: the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.

I have always been interested in the Royal Family. The story of Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson has fascinated me. The author uses never seen before sources for this book.

The Duke and Duchess of Windsor have had much written about them and their story is as interesting today as it was then. This book sheds more light on the emotions of the royal couple. I feel the couple are looked on in a more human capacity.

I do feel that a lot of what transpired with Edwars’ abdication is very similar to what we have seen happen to Prince Harry and Megan. It’s as if the Royal family has not learned valuable lessons from the past.
