Maggiori informazioni sul libro
He has lived his life in the public eye, yet remains an enigma. Born to be king, he aims much higher. This landmark publication reveals Prince Charles in all his complexity: his passionate views that set him apart from his mother, his compulsion to make a difference, and the many ways he has already made his mark as heir to the throne of the United Kingdom and fifteen other realms. The book offers fresh insights into his first marriage, which significantly shaped him, and assesses his relationship with the woman he calls his 'dearest wife': Camilla. We see Charles as a father, a friend, a serious figure, and a joker. Life at court is depicted as full of hidden dangers and unexpected comedy. Poignant, funny, and often surprising, this significant study reveals a man on the brink of happiness yet still driven by anguish and a remarkable belief system. He is portrayed as a charitable entrepreneur, activist, and avatar of the Establishment who often challenges it. Based on interviews with friends, courtiers, palace insiders, and critics, along with access to Charles himself during over a year of research, this biography explores his philanthropy, interventionism, faith, political leanings, and the philosophy that sometimes leads to controversy in his quest for harmony.
