Download Princes at War: The Bitter Battle Inside Britain's Royal Family in the Darkest Days of WWII AudioBook Free
The non-public lives of the English royals were effectively kept from the public eyesight by mutual contract of the press and royal family, but this all evolved in 1936, when King Edward VIII abdicated the throne and spurned his responsibility for the sake of the glamorous American socialite and divorcee, Wallis Simpson. In Princes at War, Deborah Cadbury shows data that the duke and duchess of Windsor colluded with Hitler to get back the English throne from Edward's youthful brother, King George VI, should Germany prevail in the conflict. Sketching on new research and recently released files, Deborah Cadbury implies that not only performed George VI have to battle to lead his country but he had to battle constantly to keep his brothers, and especially his older brother, in check.
