Traitor King: The Scandalous Exile of the Duke & Duchess of Windsor by Andrew Lownie

4.0

I am so fascinated by this couple. This author makes them out to be both so incompetent and so competent at the same time. Were they good or bad? Was the monarchy better off without them? I personally think so.

The Duke feels like an overgrown child most of the time who is spoiled rotten. But then he has moments of almost clarity and seems functional. It was so interesting to read.

Wallace seems like she got in over her head and didn't really care about the Duke or anything once he abdicated. I think she was borderline a german spy but likely just needing attention.
