The King who lost America Book

It wasn't a topic that I thought would keep me hooked, but the writer exceeded my expectations.

I learned a lot about Victorian hypocrisy, and the libertarianism of the Edwardian aristocracy. Two things in particular impressed me. First, the writer is careful to acknowledge and evaluate when supposed "facts" are presented in different ways from different sources. Secondly, there is plenty of material and discussion to enable the reader to see the complexity of the characters and their situations. All three mistresses and the King himself are presented as three dimensional making simplistic judgements about their actions impossible.

It was an interesting and satisfying read.
