Description

King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra had six children.

Of the five who reached maturity, only one, the future King George V, has received much attention from biographers.

The eldest son, Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence, a backward youth and a subject of scandal, died before he was thirty.

The three princesses, Louise, Princess Royal and Duchess of Fife, the lifelong spinster Victoria, and Maud, Queen of Norway, were never well-known to the British public during their lifetime.

In this detailed and fascinating account, John Van der Kiste has drawn upon previously unpublished correspondence from the Royal Archives, Windsor, to reveal for the first time the part this hitherto neglected group of characters played in supporting the royal family and crown during a period of transition from the Victorian age to the uncertain twentieth century.
