Prince Philip Revealed – Audiobook Onlie
Prince Philip Revealed – A Man of His Century, Audiobook Onlie By: Ingrid Seward
For more than 70 years until his death on 9 April 2021, Prince Philip was the Queen’s constant companion and support, but his vital role in the monarchy often went unnoticed.
Now, in Ingrid Seward’s brilliant new biography of the Duke of Edinburgh, we have the opportunity to read the full story of his life and notable achievements.
Born into the Greek and Danish royal family in 1921, a descendant of Queen Victoria, Prince Philip’s aristocratic lineage is second to none. But, just 18 months after he was born, the whole family had to be rescued by a British warship from the island of Corfu after his father was exiled. His nomadic childhood was spent in Germany, Paris and eventually England, where he was sent to boarding school.
At the age of 18, while studying at Dartmouth Naval College, he was tasked with looking after the King’s two daughters, 13-year-old Elizabeth and younger sister Margaret, during a royal visit. It was their first authentic meeting and just eight years later, their marriage in 1947 brought new light to the country after the perils of war. But, within a few years, their lives changed when, in 1952, she became Queen Elizabeth II, and he had to give up his naval career and learn a new role as consort. in public for the monarch and even had to give up his power Surname.
In Ingrid Seward’s brilliant new biography, we see how a man acting like that coped with having to spend the next 70 years of his life two steps behind his wife. His response was to create a role for himself, modernize the monarchy, advocate for the environment, advocate for science and technology, and inspire youth through the Prize. Duke of Edinburgh. But most of all, he proved himself to be the Queen’s most loyal and valuable companion during her long reign.
The TV series The Crown helped put Prince Philip in the center of attention, but this wonderful biography not only examines the major influences on his life, but also contains many behind-the-scenes details. revelation and insight. This first major biography of Prince Philip in nearly 30 years sheds light on his complex personality and extraordinary career.
I have always admired Prince Philip. I like his humour. There’s nothing in this book that surprises me that I already know most if not all of the content but it’s put together so well, I’ve heard it twice and will listen to it many more times. His life is remarkable. The fact that someone/anyone gives up their right to live for the sake of the country is something I cannot understand. Our wonderful Queen has dedicated her life to us and Prince Philip has dedicated his life to hers as well. The narrator is excellent. If you like the Royal family, you will love this book.
I love the way Miss Seward wrote this book. She made great use of Prince Philip’s accomplishments and his very commanding presence. But also touches on his weaknesses (which we all have) in a very kind way. It was a very good read. The prince is a very extraordinary man. One person found this helpful.
