Katie Nicholl

My excuse is I ran out of reading on Gatwich and had three hours of flying and waiting ahead of me. I had also visited Windsor and Eton earlier that day and became fascinated by the Eton uniforms-somehow I have never seen them.
This is a quick read, and more than anything, I think it summarizes the story of the family of the Prince of Wales as has been written about since his marriage to Diana. Accessible, structured and not offensive. I can imagine that the author does not want to alienate show more the royal family, and she stays on the right side, but I wonder if William, Harry and their loved ones would think that. Or if they even care?
Doubtlessly there are some facts, and even more speculation, but really, for somebody who wants to understand some of the mechanics behind the royal family, and at the same time, to be entertained, this is a good book. Mail me, and chances are I will give it to you:) show less
