Description Written by
Philip Ziegler, one of Britain\'s most celebrated biographers,
George VI is part of the
Penguin Monarchs series: short, fresh, expert accounts of England\'s rulers in a collectible format If Ethelred was notoriously \'Unready\' and Alfred \'Great\',
King George VI should bear the title of \'
George the
Dutiful\'. Throughout his life, George dedicated himself to the pursuit of what he thought he ought to be doing rather than what he wanted to do. Inarticulate and loathing any sort of public appearances, he accepted that it was his destiny to figure conspicuously in the public eye, gritted his teeth, battled his crippling stammer and got on with it. He was not born to be king, but he made an admirable one, and was the figurehead of the nation at the time of its greatest trial, the Second World War. This is a brilliant, touching and sometimes funny book about this reluctant public figure, and the private man.
Philip Ziegler is the author of the authorised biographies of Mountbatten, Harold Wilson and Edward Heath. His other books include The Duchess of Dino , William IV , The Black Death and most recently Olivier . Initially a diplomat, he worked for many years in book publishing before becoming a full-time writer. About the Author
