Description

Young Prince Philip recounts the Prince's extraordinary upbringing in Greece, France, Nazi Germany and Britain. His deaf mother was committed to a psychiatric clinic when he was nine, and his father left him to be brought up by her family. He emerged from this unsettled background self-confident, capable and famously opinionated, yet also prone to outbursts and putting his foot in it, characteristics which would have profound consequences for his family and the monarchy.
