In “Palace: My Life in the Royal Family of Monaco”, Baron Christian De Massy (nephew of Prince Rainier) relates accounts of the attempted constrictions placed on his life by a cold, demanding mother, Princess Antoinette, Prince Rainier’s sister. The story abounds with machinations as seen from De Massy’s perspective: Grace’s wedding, and the bride’s harassment by palace intrigue and slights to her American family; Antoinette’s attempts to usurp her brother’s throne. The book also details daily life in the principality and Princess Grace’s contributions to its flourishing amenities and the political climate.
Interestingly, the late Princess Grace is among the few members of Monaco’s sovereign family who escape De Massy’s harsh criticism.
This first edition hardcover, with dust jacket, (published in 1986) is in near-new condition except for some light foxing on some of the pages.
