Prince Albert Victor King Edward Vll's (r. 1901-10) first son & heir to the throne & popularly known as Eddy has virtually been airbrushed out of history. Eddy was as popular & charismatic a figure in his own time as Princess Diana a century later. As in her case his sudden death in 1892 resulted in public demonstrations of grief on a scale rarely seen at the time & it was even rumoured (as in the case of Diana) that he was murdered to save him besmirching the monarchy. Had he lived he would have been crowned king in 1911 ushering in a profoundly different style of monarchy from that of his younger brother who ultimately succeeded as the stodgy George V. Eddy's life was virtually ignored by historians until the 1970s when myths began to accumulate & his character somehow grew horns & a tail. As a result he is remembered today primarily as a suspect in the Jack the Ripper murders of 1888 & for his alleged involvement in the Cleveland Street homosexual scandal of 1889. But history has found Eddy guilty of crimes he did not commit. Now for the first time using modern forensic evidence combined with Eddy's previously unseen records personal correspondence & photographs Andrew Cook proves his innocence. Prince Eddy" reveals the truth about a key royal figure a man who would have made a fine king & changed the face of the British monarchy. This is the book of the hugely successful Channel 4 documentary that received one of the channel's highest viewing figures for a one-off historical show (3 million). It is a radically new interpretation of a much maligned prince. It reviews in the paperback review sections of national daily & Sunday newspapers to include " The Daily Mail" & " The Sunday Telegraph". Hardback was serialised in " History Today"." ...

Prince Of Mist

Max Carvers father - a watchmaker and inventor - decides to move his family to a small town on the coast to an old house that once belonged to a prestigious surgeon Dr Richard Fleischmann. But the house holds many secrets and stories of its own. Behind it is an overgrown garden full of statues surrounded by a metal fence topped with a six-pointed star. When he goes to investigate Max finds that the statues seem to consist of a kind of circus troop with the large statue of a clown at its centre. Max has the curious sensation that the statue is beckoning to him. As the family settles in they grow increasingly uneasy: they discover a box of old films belonging to the Fleischmanns; his sister has disturbing dreams and his other sister hears voices whispering to her from an old wardrobe. They
also discover the wreck of a boat that sank many years ago in a terrible storm. Everyone on board perished except for one man - an engineer who built the lighthouse at the end of the beach. During the dive Max sees something that leaves him cold - on the old mast floats a tattered flag with the symbol of the six-pointed star. As they learn more about the wreck the chilling story of the Prince of the Mists begins to emerge.
