Uncrowned King The Life of Prince Albert

Stanley Weintraub, biographer of Queen Victoria and other major figures of her era, here unveils for the first time the largely hidden role of Prince Albert, establishing him as one of the greatest men of his days.

Drawing on previously unexplored sources, Weintraub's Uncrowned King delves into Prince Albert's political, familial, financial, medical, and sexual life.

Stanley Weintraub is Evan Pugh Professor of Arts and Humanities at Pennsylvania State University.
