The Story of a Tragic Dynasty
Little has gone right for the Monaco Grimaldis since Princess Grace's Rover sped through a crash barrier to the bottom of the Corniche in 1982. Fifteen years later, as Prince Rainier led his family onto the pink balcony to mark the 700th anniversary of the Grimaldis' continuing rule, there was a hollow ring to the pealing bells which launched the year-long festivities.
In the first book to focus on the Grimaldi family after Princess Grace's death, 'The Ruling House of Monaco' examines why the fairytale has turned into a nightmare. Through revealing and exclusive interviews with HSH Prince Albert, Princess Grace's sister Lizanne Kelly LeVine, members of the Grimaldi family and close personal friends, John Glatt uncovers the truth behind the sad decline of a tragic dynasty.
Includes colour and black-and-white illustrations.
