All he wanted to do was to marry the woman he loved. But his country said ´No!´

He was Edward VIII, King of Great Britain, King of India, King of Australia, and King of thirty-nine other countries. And he loved the wrong woman.

She was beautiful and she loved him - but she was already married to another man.

It was a love story that shook the world. The King had to choose: to be King, or to have love... and leave his country, never to return.

4 (Muito bom)

Mas um bom livro para praticar a leitura em inglês... de uma forma breve conta a história do rei da Inglaterra, que abdicou do seu trono para poder viver com o grande amor da sua vida, deixando o reinado para seu irmão George que viria a ser pai da rainha Elizabeth.
