"Based on exclusive interviews with members of the Prince's inner circle and underpinned by rare direct access to the Prince himself, this revelatory biography takes us deep into his world, illuminating his struggles and passions, his achievements as a philanthropist and the skulduggery of court life. It also offers a fundamental reappraisal of one of the most documented episodes of modern history, his first marriage.
The reality, as in many aspects of the Prince’s story, is more gripping and more poignant than we imagined. This biography lays bare the astonishing extent to which the princely activist has already left his mark on the world." -- Back cover
