Abstract

A Very Royal Book

Radziwill, Catherine | October 5, 1932 issue

add to cart   close window

The book "A Princess in Exile," is disappointing and decidedly inferior to "Education of a Princess," although there is apparently much less ghost writing and editing in it than there was in that earlier book. This does not mean that the present bulky volume is uninteresting. On the contrary, it is extremely interesting as a psychological document. The Grand Duchess Marie is but the personification of her caste. For a few moments one felt tempted to forget this while reading "The Education of a Princess," which treated of such stupendous events that its tone could not but be affected by them.
