Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Growing up in the supreme moral rigour of Queen Victorias court, young Bertie was always going to find it hard to live up to his parents expectation. He was far from a brilliant student, and though charming, his carnal inclinations were widely rumoured to have sped up his Fathers decline, with Prince Albert dying a mere two weeks after Bertie spent three nights with an actress who had been smuggled into his military camp.
