This 1986 illustrated first edition copy is sold in FINE condition in a FINE unclipped dustwrapper. By the end of this fascinating ad well edited collection of the letters of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor,(Wallis Simpson and Edward V111) one comes as close as possible to knowing the writers. In contrast to the popularly accepted picture of a scheming woman, Wallis in particular comes across as a likeable, vibrant woman who got caught up in something she didn't quite understand.The author's extensive commentary is very readable and greatly enhances understanding of the letters. Rarely does a book combine, as this one does, great popular interest and historically important revelations.
