Books Autobiographies He has lived his whole life in the public eye, yet he remains an enigma. He was born to be king, but he aims much higher. A landmark publication, Charles: The Heart of a King reveals Prince Charles in all his complexity: the passionate views that mean he will never be as remote & impartial as his mother; the compulsion to make a difference & the many & startling ways in which the heir to the throne of the United Kingdom & fifteen other realms has already made his mark. The book offers fresh & fascinating insights into the first marriage that did so much to define him & an assessment of his relationship with the woman he calls, with unintended accuracy, his 'dearest wife': Camilla. We see Charles as a father & a friend, a serious figure & a joker. Life at court turns out to be full of hidden dangers & unexpected comedy. Poignant, funny & often surprising, the first significant study of the Prince in over a decade reveals a man in the sight of happiness yet still driven by anguish & a remarkable belief system, a charitable entrepreneur, activist, agitator & avatar of the Establishment who just as often tilts against it. Based on multiple interviews with his friends & courtiers, palace insiders & critics, & access to Charles himself during research lasting more than a year, this biography explores the Prince’s philanthropy & his compulsive interventionism, his faith, his political leanings & philosophy that means when he seeks harmony he sometimes creates controversy. Gripping, at times astonishing, often laugh-out-loud, this is a royal biography unlike any other.   Product Information:  •� ISBN:�  9780753560440 •� Author:�   Catherine Mayer  •� Publisher:�  WH Allen •� Format:�   Paperback •� Pages:�  448 •� Dimensions:�  16.13 x 3.91 x 24.03 cm ...
