Of the five who reached maturity, only one - the future King George V - has received much attention from biographers The eldest son, Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence, a chronically backward youth and a subject of scandal, died before he was thirty. The three princesses - Louis, Princess Royal and Duchess of Fife, the lifelong spinster Victoria, and Maud, Queen of Norway -- were never well-known to the British public during their lifetime. However, in this detailed and fascinating account, the author has drawn on previously unpublished correspondence from the Royal Archives, Windsor, to reveal, for the first time, the part this hitherto much-neglected group of characters played (in Britain and Norway) in supporting the royal family and crown during a period of transition from the Victorian age to the uncertain twentieth century.
