Interesting essay written about Edward VIII abdication for Mrs. Wallis Simpson (the Duke and Duchess of Windsor). The essay was written by famed writer and British novelist Sir Osbert Sitwell shortly after the abdication in 1936, although it was not printed until fifty year later in 1986. This is a rare title indeed, and a must for any Duke & Duchess of Windsor or royal collections. "Partial and prejudiced as he was, Osbert Sitwell remains an important and unique witness of the whole bizarre royal drama."
