“Mine is the story of the life of a man brought up in a special way, as a Prince trained in the manners and maxims of the nineteenth century for a life that had all but disappeared by the end of his youth.  And in retracing the fraying, half-forgotten shreds of memory into the past, I have been astonished by the velocity of change that has characterised the times in which I was destined to live.”
