Books By Adrian Phillips - Author

Adrian Phillips broke new ground with The King Who Had To Go, the first account of the political dimension of the abdication crisis of 1936\. It exposed the remorseless strategies developed in the corridors of power that confronted King Edward VIII's glamourous love for a socially unacceptable, twice-divorced American woman. He now directs his understanding of how decisions are made at the highest level together with an intimate knowledge of the individuals involved, to probe how each side in the conflict manoeuvred to control the media during the crisis and in its bitter aftermath.
