101 Facts About King Edward VII: The Undervalued King tells you about Bertie's life from his difficult childhood through his marriage and mistresses to why he was regarded as the Uncle of Europe. Edward VII is one of the memorable members of the British royal family. There is so much more to him than his Edward the Caresser persona. He may have lived life to excess but he was a natural diplomat and was ahead of his time decrying prejudices. Edward VII realised how important public support was to the monarchy and how damaging his reclusive mother Queen Victoria's behaviour was. He watched his nephew Kaiser Wilhelm II with suspicion and prepared Britain for what he saw was inevitable aggression from Germany. Edwardian history saw significant changes. Did Bertie support them? Who was his long suffering wife and was it a love match?How many children did Edward VII have?Why was he known as Bertie?How early did his hedonistic traits show?Was Bertie responsible for his father Prince Albert's premature death?Was he a popular king?101 Facts About King Edward VII: The Undervalued King reveals the answers in an easy to read format so if you enjoy trivia, fun facts and/or royal historical biographies, this is a great opportunity to read about a king who had a short reign but lives long in the memory. Why not see if any of the other titles in the 101 History series interest you too.
