Alan Lascelles was a British courtier who served as Private Secretary to King George VI and, briefly, to Queen Elizabeth II. His diaries, published as King's Counsellor, offer an extraordinary insider's view of the British monarchy during some of its most turbulent years, including the abdication crisis, the Second World War, and the transition to the new Elizabethan age. This audiobook offers listeners a rare, fascinating glimpse behind the palace doors from one of the most powerful figures in the twentieth-century royal household.
