«La Scandaleuse Duchesse de Windsor» is Charles Higham's biography, published by LGF/Le Livre de Poche in paperback (568 pages, in French).
Charles Higham investigates the life of Wallis Simpson, the divorced American for whom Edward VIII abdicated, and her relationship with the Duke of Windsor. Using declassified archives, he traces a controversial portrait of the duchess: her origins, her social rise, her friendships, and the suspicions of espionage and Nazi sympathies that surrounded her.
The original title of the work, published in 1988, is «Wallis: Secret Lives of the Duchess of Windsor»; this French edition is from 1990.
For readers interested in biographies, the British monarchy, and the inner workings of twentieth-century high society.
