Produktbeschreibung

'Irresistible. One controversial expatriate on another.’ - Philip Mansel 'Vivid.’ - Michael Bloch 'Wit and intelligence.’ - Philip Ziegler 'Cracking photographs.’ - Evening Standard An intimate of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Diana Mosley was a frequent guest at their parties in Paris, or at 'the Moulin’ in Orsay, where they were neighbours. Written in her inimitable style Diana Mosley paints a remarkable portrait of her friend that is also realistic with regards to her flaws. What was it about her that utterly captivated the heir to the throne and made him renounce it when he became King? It is this question which Diana Mosley seeks to answer and which she is perhaps better qualified to answer than anyone else, given her marriage to Sir Oswald Mosley, Leader of the British Fascists.
