Opis

Based on multiple interviews with his friends and courtiers, palace insiders and critics, and access to Charles himself during research, this biography explores the Prince's philanthropy and his compulsive interventionism, his faith, his political leanings and the philosophy that means when he seeks harmony he sometimes creates controversy.

Recenzje

A must-read ... this important book is nothing short of a manual to our future King's world-view ... and Mayer's book is the first comprehensive attempt to explore and explain what may lie ahead. GQ
