William at 40

The Making of a Modern Monarch

De: Robert Jobson

Narrado por: David Thorpe

Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, is destined one day to be king. Determined to serve his country as his grandmother, the queen, has so selflessly done for seven decades, William is the epitome of a loving husband to Catherine and a devoted father to their three children: George, Charlotte and Louis.

In public, William appears calm, balanced and determined. He is passionate about safeguarding the environment and helping to protect species under threat of extinction. The duke and his wife have also worked tirelessly to remove the stigma that continues to mark mental health problems.

In private, however, those close to him say that William, while being a dedicated servant of the Crown can defy his calm family-guy public demeanour.

This is the definitive account—insightful and nuanced—of the life of the Duke of Cambridge as he approaches his milestone birthday. Jobson explores the complex character of the man who will one day reign as King William V. It is the story of the making of a king for our times.

The story of the making of a monarch for the 21st century.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A landmark new book." (Daily Mail)

Poor narration

Narration was so poor and ruined what may have been an interesting bio that provided some new and interesting insights.

Not much new

I think the author could have better researched some of his information regarding Meghan Markle (like the dish soap story that has since been proven false) instead of repeating earlier falsehoods as fact. There was also a lot of rehashing from his earlier works which felt like a cheat. The original bits of background about William that I was unfamiliar with almost make up for wasting a credit.

loved it
