Description
A sumptuous celebration of the life of King Charles III is published to coincide with his coronation in May 2023. This fascinating account tells the story of the boy born to be King, from schoolboy and eligible young bachelor to his time in the armed forces, and from the birth of his sons, William and Harry, to his more recent role as grandfather. The book explores not only his official and ceremonial duties, both in the United Kingdom and overseas, but also the patronages and passions that he has long held so dear. It reflects on his previous role as Prince of Wales and looks towards the future in his role as King, giving an insight into the man behind the throne. The coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey is described alongside a look back at his life, from his accession to the throne following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, to his interest in sport, his royal homes, and his life with his wife Camilla.
