Prince Harry isn't the first in his family to release a tell-all memoir about their exit from royal life.
Read today, the finished project is a measured, elegantly formal—and at times tedious—memoir of the duke’s life from childhood to the abdication. Although Murphy and Bryan claim that the duke once cried, “I had a wretched childhood,”is remarkably kind about his family members.
Although the abdication would fracture their relationship forever, the duke presents his mother, Queen Mary, as a loving, if distant, mother, who taught him to crochet and stuck up for him in the face of his fearfully stern father, King George V, as much as she could.
