I am a pretty well established fan of Andrew Morton, and I specialized in World War II history. I assumed I would like this book pretty well, and I did. This was the first real account I had read about Wallis Simpson, whom I have a low opinion of. It was very interesting to see what kinds of behind the scenes things that the major players in World War II were up to. Wallis Simpson wanted to do whatever possible to advance her situation, and the Duke of Windsor was in complete subjugation to her. I can see why the Royal Family hoped to keep these types of activities under wraps, but it did make for an interesting read all these years later.
