Fascinating, rigorously researched, and vividly told... [a] groundbreaking biography. -- Dr. Anna Whitelock

Princess Louise played a crucial role in the rise of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, yet while her son Albert entered history, she was erased from it. Based on a decade of original research, this is the first English-language biography to explore her life and legacy--and the scandal the royal family tried to bury.

Married off to the older Duke Ernst of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, Louise bore two sons, Ernst and Albert. But her unhappy marriage led to her banishment, divorce, and the loss of her children. She died alone at just thirty-one, her reputation destroyed by court gossip and political intrigue. Was she a fallen woman--or a victim of royal machinations? And was Prince Albert truly Ernst's son?

Louise's story is one of scandal, tragedy, and secrets that continue to shape the House of Windsor today.
