Produktbeschreibung
A revelatory and racy biography of the early life of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.We have grown so used to seeing Prince Philip as a loyal, dutiful and occasionally bad-tempered old man that it is easy to forget what a strange and intriguing life he led when he was younger. ´Young Prince Philip´ tells the story of the first, hugely intriguing, half of his life.In this fast-paced and highly entertaining biography, Philip Eade will focus on those aspects of the Prince´s early life that are most compelling: his father´s dramatic flight from revolutionary Greece; the subsequent madness of his deaf mother and prolonged absences of his feckless father; his school days in Nazi Germany; his relationship with his four sisters, all married to Germans, one to an officer in the SS; his rather breezy courtship and marriage to the most eligible girl in the world; and his alleged infidelities and membership of raffish circles during the 1950s and ´60s.Written with great verve, ´Young Prince Philip´ will be less reverential in tone than the traditional royal biography but no less meticulously researched and authoritative.
