Fifteen years after having abdicated the throne to marry the woman he loved—Wallis Simpson—King Edward VIII, now the Duke of Windsor, published his memoirs. Once a King: The Lost Memoir of Edward VIII reproduces this uncrowned King's previously unseen writing, including much that he could or would not write for publication in 1951. Jane Marguerite Tippett weaves together Edward's writing alongside newly uncovered interviews with the Duke and Duchess, diary entries from ghostwriter Charles Murphy and other sources.
