EDWARD VIII OF ENGLAND, THE FAILURE OF A KING

Once upon a time a king of England, Edward the VIII relinquished the throne for love, less than one year after his accession. It happened in the XXth century, in 1936, at the height of the British Empire.The merry gossipers, dear to William Sakespeare, still remember the young and modern Prince of Wales of the Jazz age, a
brilliant ambassador to the crown, who made the headlines of the popular press and the newsreels.Some reviewers and historiographers haven’t stopped since to question the sinuous life of the ex-king who became the Duke of Windsor, as beyond the legend many obscurities remain.
