Description

Biography of Edwina Ashley, later Countess Mountbatten of Burma. Based on much original research and travel, conversations with her friends and relatives, this book traces Edwina's life from the tragic and unloved childhood to the crusader and last Vicereine of India. It chronicles her perilous travels, her difficult role during the abdication crisis and her historic relationship with Nehru, and seeks to show how much her husband depended on her support and guidance and how little (until now) this vital aspect of her work has been understood and appreciated. 239p. plates index Looks unread
