Provides a sympathetic but not uncritical portrait of King Edward VII. Somewhat technical regarding Parliment, the navy. etc.....so if this is your cup of tea, this is the book for you.

Lori P (USA: NY) (2008/05/20):
From the book cover:"Philip Magnus has made exhaustive and often rewarding use of the sources, dredging out details and episodes that re new, vivid, and frequently surprising. (Barbara Tuchman)" "Frank and fair…illuminating both about King Edward himself and the nature, importance, and changing situation of the British monarchy. (Christian Science Monitor)"
