This is a book I am looking forward to reading. Elisabeth Basford has been working on this biography of Princess Mary, the only daughter of King George V and Queen Mary.
The book will be published in the UK on February 5 by the History Press.
Acclaimed biographer Hugo Vickers describes the book: "At last a biography of Princess Mary, the Queen’s aunt – and a good one ... She has long deserved a full study and in Elisabeth Basford, she has found a dedicated and sympathetic biographer, who has done her full justice."
The book can be ordered from Amazon UK. Princess Mary will also be listed on the US Amazon, but it is not currently available.
Let's just say I am giddy with excitement about this book. Except for two hagiographies written in the 1920s, this is the first real biography of Princess Mary.
