THE PRINCE AND THE LILY

Edward VII, Price of Wales, heir to the throne, lover of race horses and gaming life, and regal admirer of the Victorian world's most beautiful women. Mrs. Lillie Langtry, one of the most stunningly beautiful women in England, an elegant sensualist, model to the greatest painters of the age, and the first publicly avowed mistress to the man who would be King. Together, their private joy set the tone of an era, as a nation and people celebrated the return of romance - and a country girl turned an impossible dream into a wonderful royal reality.
