I loved this book. Many authors wrote about this remarkable man. However, this author captures facts from the royal archives and uses them to write a wonderful story. The life of Prince Albert was short but power-packed. I bought this book to read after watching the movie: "Victoria & Albert". It is a love-story & a history lesson about what life was like for the British royal family in the 1800's. The movie compliments this book well. Watch it and READ THIS BOOK!
