London England: Collins Lions, Date: 1985. prev owners name and nessage to inside coverPhilip Ziegler has achieved a masterpiece. The riches of the mountbatten archive at Broadlands, to which he is the first biographer to have had full access, have not deflected him from investigating with thorough scholarship all the other sources for his subject's life. Kindly, understanding, admiring yet undeceived, he shows with perfect politeness that the version of history that Mountbatten would have had us believe is not always supported by the evidence. He also reveals, through direct quotation of letters and other documents, what an affectionate, kind-hearted and often vulnerable man was hidden beneath that carapace of medals, protocal and childlike egocentricity. This is biography on the grand scale. For all the seriousnesss which the author brings to the great issues and events of which he writes, he never forgets that he is painting the portrait of a man who, for all the glitter and the gold, was nothing if not human.
