Product Description
Synopsis
This work was published on the 85th birthday of HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Famous for his so-called "gaffes", Prince Philip is, quite simply, a national treasure: a man whose immense contribution to Britain (and the world) is not always fully appreciated. For nearly 60 years he has been not only at the Queen's side, but often several paces behind her! This cannot have been easy for a tough, no-nonsense ex-naval officer who distinguished himself in World War II. However, armed with a down-to-earth view on life and a magnificent sense of humour, he has carved out a unique role as Royal Consort. For the first time, two veteran Fleet Street royal reporters have compiled a comprehensive list of the iron Duke's notorious one-liners. In researching the book, Phil Dampier and Ashley Walton came to realise that there is so much more to the Prince than simply his famously acerbic comments. This book is great fun but it also shows that, behind the Duke's bluntness and banter, is a compassionate, deep-thinking man.
