2237 The Kaiser's Daughter: Memories of H.R.H. Viktoria Luise, Duchess of Brunswick and Luneberg, Princess of Prussia translated and edited by Robert Vacha (read 15 Oct 1989) This is a book drawn from three books published in Germany in 1965, 1967, and 1974. Since there are only 263 pages one can be sure great globs of the German original are omitted. It is the Memoirs of the youngest of Kaiser William II's seven children (and the only girl), who was born 13 Sep 1892. She married Ernest August, son of the duke of Cumberland. They had four boys and a girl. Her granddaughter is Queen of Spain. This is an artless book, written with a bias to be expected of the Kaiser's daughter. But I found it fun to read, especially the part dealing with her life after 1913. She was opposed to the Kaiser's second marriage, and has little good to say of Hermine, his second wife. I cannot help but find European royalty fun to read about. Viktoria Luise and her husband had 12 of their 16 great-grandparents in common! ( )
