The surprise bestseller The King's Speech told the unknown story of the bond between George VI and Lionel Logue, the brilliant, eccentric speech therapist who helped the young king face up to the unimaginable challenge of leading his nation into war. But their story did not end there.
Presenting more never-before-seen material from Logue's meticulous, brilliant diaries, The King's War chronicles what Logue saw and heard at the king's side as George and his people braved the long years of isolation and hardship of the Second World War. As the king's confidant and advisor and an outsider looking in on the political and military intrigue at the Court, Logue's uniquely humane view of his client and friend throws new light on this crucial time.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. The broadcast that George VI made to the nation on the outbreak of war in September 1939 - which formed the climax of the multi Oscar-winning film The King's Speech - was the product of years of hard work with Lionel Logue, his iconoclastic Australian-born speech therapist. Yet the relationship between the two men did not end there. Far from it: in the years that followed, Logue was to play an even more important role at the monarch's side.The King's War follows this relationship through the dark days of Dunkirk and the drama of D-Day to eventual victory in 1945 - and beyond. It is written by Peter Conradi, a Sunday Times journalist, and Mark Logue, Lionel's grandson, whose previous book, The King's Speech: How One Man Saved the British Monarchy, was a best-seller in Britain and America and translated into more than 20 languages.The book draws on exclusive material from the Logue Archive - the collection of diaries, letters and other documents left by Lionel and his feisty wife, Myrtle. It provides a fascinating portrait of two men and their respective families - the Windsors and the Logues - as they together faced up to the greatest challenge in Britain's history. The extraordinary follow-up to the international bestseller The King's Speech Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
