Description

|
|
|
Lionel Logue was a self-taught and virtually unknown speech therapist. Yet it was this outgoing, amiable man who almost singlehandedly turned the nervous, tongue-tied Duke of York into one of Britain's greatest modern kings after his brother Edward VIII abdicated in 1936. This book, based on Logue's own notebooks (which surfaced just weeks before the Academy Award–winning film of the same name began production), is an intimate portrait of the British monarchy at a time of its greatest crisis, seen through the eyes of an Australian commoner who was proud to serve, and save, his king.
