About this product

Product Information

One of Britain's most distinguished biographers turns her focus on one of the most vilified women of the twentieth century. Historian Anne Sebba has written the first full biography by a woman of Wallis Simpson, Duchess of Windsor. 'That woman', as she was referred to by the Queen Mother, became a hate figure for ensnaring a British king and destabilising the monarchy. Neither beautiful nor brilliant, she nevertheless became one of the most talked-about women of her generation and she inspired such deep love and adoration in Edward VIII that he gave up a throne and an empire for her. Wallis lived by her wit and her wits, while both her apparent and alleged moral transgressions added to her aura and dazzle. Based on new archives and material only recently made available, this scrupulously researched biography sheds new light on the character and motivations of a powerful, charismatic and complex woman.

Ultimate find, I was looking for one of these for a long time, and when I found this one I had no hesitation in purchasing it, the seller was extremely helpful and communicated very well. The price with the postage was very reasonable and when I got it home the item looked better in person than it did in the picture

  • "That Woman" - Bravo Anne Sebba!

    Unfamiliar with the work of Anne Sebba, I saw a documentary of the late Duchess of Windsor Wallis Simpson and observed a reference to the author. This, as usual with me, caused an instant search for more information. Finding the new book on EBay, I purchased it quickly. I have not been disappointed for a single moment; indeed I have been utterly fascinated. Mrs Simpson, the Queen-that-wasn't, was a complex, pitiful figure with little recourse in her early life. Sadly, she ended her life as she started it - alone, outcast, with few friends and scant regard for the truth. With considerable and documented research, Sebba manages to get to the real essence of 'that woman' and does so with no real bias or judgement. Interestingly, it is Sebba's incidental analysis of the Royal Prince's ...
