Written by Philip Ziegler, one of Britain's most celebrated biographers, George VI is part of the Penguin Monarchs series: short, fresh, expert accounts of England's rulers in a collectible formatIf Ethelred was notoriously 'Unready' and Alfred 'Great', King George VI should bear the title of 'George the Dutiful'. Throughout his life, George dedicated himself to the pursuit of what he thought he ought to be doing rather than what he wanted to do. Inarticulate and loathing any sort of public appearances, he accepted that it was his destiny to figure conspicuously in the public eye, gritted his teeth, battled his crippling stammer and got on with it. He was not born to be king, but he made an admirable one, and was the figurehead of the nation at the time of its greatest trial, the Second World War. This is a brilliant, touching and sometimes funny book about this reluctant public figure, and the private man.Philip Ziegler is the author of the authorised biographies of Mountbatten, Harold Wilson and Edward Heath. His other books include The Duchess of Dino, William IV, The Black Death and most recently Olivier. Initially a diplomat, he worked for many years in book publishing before becoming a full-time writer.

I've been greatly enjoying the Penguin Monarchs series, which I first encountered in a bookstore on a business trip to London and have been trying to assiduously cobble together a set off of Amazon as they come available here in the United States. Each short book is done by a different author, which leads to some ups and downs depending on the content and structure chosen by the individual author for the particular monarch in question. Sometimes you're getting a fine biography of a monarch you think you know well; other times you're learning about a complete unknown.Ziegler does a great job here fleshing out in a short 100 pages the character that most people are only familiar with from Colin Firth's portrayal in The King's Speech. Here you get a wonderful description of George's relationship with the other players in his life who helped to shape his character and temperament - his parents, his brother, his wife - features which helped him both step into the unexpected position of King of England following his brother's abdication and maintain Great Britain's morale through to victory in World War II. A great read for biography lovers and those interested in the British monarchy.
