In December of 1936, King Edward VIII of Great Britain shocked the world by giving up his kingdom in order to marry a twice-divorced American commoner named Wallis Simpson.The King and Mrs. Simpson recounts the extraordinary love story between the popular king and the enigmatic woman that began at a party in England and culminated with the downfall of his reign nearly six years later.The story has been told before, but The King & Mrs. Simpson differs from the other books written about the couple who were retitled the Duke and Duchess of Windsor after their wedding. The King & Mrs. Simpson is a work of creative nonfiction that presents the story as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor wanted it to be told. The King & Mrs. Simpson is the size of a novella, but still captures the historical detail that makes their story legendary.
