Note:Robert Jobson's biography 'William at 40: The Making of a Modern Monarch' provides a definitive account and insight into the life of the Duke of Cambridge as he approaches his milestone birthday. At a key point in the history of the modern British monarchy, the author explores the complex character of the man who will follow his father Charles as King, his beliefs and thoughts, to reveal what kind of monarch William V will be.
Note:Lucian Freud (1922-2011) is one of the greatest painters of the 20th and 21st centuries. Though ferociously private, he spoke on the phone for at least an hour a day for almost 40 years to his close confidante and collaborator William Feaver - about painting and the art world, but also about his life and loves. Feaver wrote down their conversations immediately and typed up his hand-written account the next day.
