內容簡介 An exhaustive and revealing biographyof Britain's new monarch, King Charles III, with fresh reporting by thejournalist the Wall Street Journal dubbed "the Godfather of royalreporting." With exclusive interviews and extensive research, King Charles deliversdefinitive insight into the extraordinary life of His Royal Highness, former Princeof Wales, as he takes the throne, a watershed moment in modern history and inthe British monarchy. New York Times bestselling author Robert Jobson debunks the myths aboutthe man who became king, going beyond banal, bogus media caricatures of Charlesto tell his true story. Jobson--who has spent nearly thirty years chroniclingthe House of Windsor, and has met Charles on countless occasions--receivedunprecedented cooperation from Clarence House, what was the Prince's office, inwriting this illuminating biography. King Charles divulges the full range of Charles's profoundly heldpolitical beliefs: the United Kingdom's special relationship to the UnitedStates, climate change, Brexit, and immigration--to ultimately portray the kindof monarch Charles III will be. Jobson taps a number of sources close to the now-Kingwho have never spoken on the record before, plus members of the Royal Householdwho have served Charles during his decades of public life. This comprehensive profile also reveals the late Queen Elizabeth's plans totransition Charles to the throne; how at her insistence he already reads allgovernment briefings; and why he feels it is his constitutional duty to relayhis thoughts to ministers in his controversial "black spider memos." Moreover, KingCharles reveals the truth about Charles's deeply loving but occasionallyvolatile relationship with his second wife and chief supporter, Camilla. The result is an intriguing new portrait of a man who at last has become king.
