Quotes by Theo Aronson  (?)

“King George V and Queen Mary had been inadequate parents. Both were shy, inhibited, inarticulate people, not given to displays of emotion or affection.”
Theo Aronson, Princess Margaret: A Biography

“He had, in fact, cracked his knee-cap. But refusing to have a doctor”
Theo Aronson, The King in Love: Edward VII's Mistresses

“Although princes need not necessarily be intelligent, it is essential that they have some sort of public presence. The Duke of York had none. Fine-boned and slightly built, he looked frail, seemed lacking in physical stamina. His air was tense, hesitant, ill-at-ease. An observer had only to notice the incessant working of his jaw muscles to appreciate that he was under severe strain.”
Theo Aronson, Princess Margaret: A Biography
