Books, Manuscripts
A vibrant account of a colourful life which tells of Robin's affairs with, among others, David, Marquis of Milford Haven, Prince Philip's best friend and best man. At the age of 17 Robin was briefly married to an older man, in Sydney; their divorce bumped the war off the front page of the paper. Robin left behind WWII Sydney for London and went on to develop friendships with Frank Sinatra, Noel Coward, Prince Philip, Lord Mountbatten, Edward and Wallis Simpson, and various kings and princes. She was also a correspondent of Jack Kennedy and T.S. Eliot.
