About this book

This biography chronicles the life and reign of King Edward VII, the pleasure-loving heir who waited long in Queen Victoria's shadow before ascending the throne to preside over the glittering, changing world of the Edwardian era. Hopkins traces Edward's role as monarch and diplomat, his part in European affairs, and the character of an age that bore his name. Detailed and admiring, it offers a portrait of the British monarchy at the height of empire on the eve of the First World War. For readers interested in royal history and the Edwardian period, it provides an absorbing account of a pivotal king and his times.
