The most intimate and informative portrait yet of Prince Harry, from royal expert Katie Nicholl, author of the bestselling William and Harry and Kate.

From his earliest public appearances as a mischievous redheaded toddler, Prince Harry has captured the hearts of royal enthusiasts around the world. In Harry , Britain's leading expert on the young royals offers an in-depth look at the wayward prince turned national treasure. Nicholl sheds new light on growing up royal, Harry's relationship with his mother, his troubled youth and early adulthood, and how his military service in Afghanistan inspired him to create his legacy, the Invictus Games.

Harry: Life, Loss, and Love features interviews with friends, those who have worked with the prince, and former Palace aides. Nicholl explores Harry's relationship with his family, in particular, the Queen, his father, stepmother, and brother, and reveals his secret "second family" in Botswana.

Booklist Review

The world has come to smile warmly at Prince Harry, the indomitable, ginger-haired second son of the Prince of Wales and the late Princess Diana. In the pages of this admiring but not fawning biography by journalist and royals expert Nicholl, we see Harry evolve from a cute little boy to a grieving, trouble-prone teenager to, after a decade-long stint in the British army, which included service in Afghanistan, a poised man on the verge of marriage to Meghan Markle. By marrying Markle, an actress, humanitarian activist, and biracial American divorcée, he will help bring the royal family further into the twenty-first century. Harry has found himself and his purpose in life, which is to carry on the good works his mother began during her brief tenure as Princess of Wales. Harry has stepped away from his years of uncertainty about his place in the royal family and his role in British society to claim his importance in helping support the House of Windsor in its continued relevance to contemporary life.--Hooper, Brad Copyright 2018 Booklist
