Beschreibung
An intimate of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Diana Mitford (Lady Mosley) was a frequent guest at their parties in Paris or at the 'Moulin' in the village of Orsay just outside Paris, where they were neighbours. Written in her distinctive aristocratic style - archly intelligent, amused and perceptive - Diana Mitford paints an unforgettably life-like portrait of her friend that captures both the duchess's charm and flaws.
What was it that utterly captivated the Duke of Windsor and made him renounce his crown so that he might never be parted from Wallis Simpson? It is this question that Diana Mitford seeks to answer. She is perhaps more qualified than most given as she so enjoyed Wallis's and the Duke's company.

Über den Autor
Diana Mitford became the most controversial of the Mitford sisters after divorcing her husband Bryan Guinness, the richest man in Britain, to be the lover of Sir Oswald Mosley. He was the leading light of the British Labour Party but would later set up his own nationalist party in support of the king. She was Winston Churchill's niece by marriage and wrote several books after her remarkable autobiography A Life of Contrasts. When the Duchess of Windsor lapsed into a coma ten years before she died, Diana Mitford was the last friend to see her before doctors forbade visitors. Concerned, she later took up her friend's fate with the Duchess's closest living relatives - the royal family.
