A brilliant insider's portrait of Charles III by the bestselling biographer and royal commentator Robert Hardman.
Faced with family dramas, political crises and questions about the futurte of the monarchy in Britain and elsewhere, the new King had no shortage of challenges. With his unrivalled access to the Royal Family, their close friends, staff past and present plus previously unseen papers in the Royal Archives, Hardman charts a dramatic story of transition at the very top and of a sovereign resolute in making his mark.
This book also describes the vital role played by Qheen Camilla, the King's relationships with Prince William and Prince Harry, his plans for reforming the monarchy and his evolving place on the world stage. From the emotional days following the death of Elizabeth II to the first coronation in seventy years -radically different from all before it- and the stealthy but steady pace of change ever since, Hardman takes us behind the scenes to reveal Charles the man as well as the monarch.
Authoritative and richly insightful, Charles III is a fascinating account of a king determined to maximize 'the time God grants me' - and even enjoy it.
