Gloria TNT has a new expensive english language book out about
Albert's her beloved 500 room Schloss.
http://www.rizzoliusa.com...ok.php?isbn=9780847847143Nice to see the bling out of the vaults and being worn. Although I dont like the use of fur!
There is a youtube introduction in English too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9enXzTEcLUI must say I find it amazing how 25 years of being a widow and 14 years since the Regency offically ended there is very little evidence of the actual Furst in the schloss and in the public image - just a trophy room. Anyone who didnt know the history would believe she was Furstin in her own right (rather than through marriage) as every page in the book shows her stamp on the place.
I notice that Countess Beatrix has a sitting room -I'm not at all suprised that there is no new Furstin on the scene as she would probably end up like the second Mrs DeWinter in Rebecca one step behind Gloria and her mother in the Schloss. Amazing how little power sharing there is with Albert considering that at his age Johannes was running the whole empire
