Summary
Charles: The Heart of a King is the first significant biography of Prince Charles in over two decades, providing the first glimpse inside the realigned monarchy that the Prince now leads. It covers topics such as his approach to his future role as king and head of the Church of England, the wilder shores of his personal and political philosophy, his family relationships and his first marriage. Mayer offers an enlightening insider's look at Charles the prince, the royal vocation and its inherent court struggles, Charles the philanthropist and businessman, founding the Prince's Trust and setting up one of Britain's first organic farms, to Charles the reformer and his controversial ideas on the relationship between the monarch and the Church of England. She also takes a closer look at Charles the man, at his upbringing, his brutal schooling and military service and his difficult relationship with his parents, as well as a reappraisal of his marriage to Diana.
