The Duke de Steve Earl-Jones Resumen del Libro
If you thought you knew who Prince Phillip or the Duke of Edinburgh
as he is known today is, then think again. Join us as we follow the Prince from his birth on June 10, 1921, on the small island of Corfu in Greece, to his marriage to Princess Elizabeth, the future queen of England on November 20, 1947
It is a story of banishment, love, betrayal, heroism and of acute loneliness, but most of all it is a story of a young man struggling to come to terms with his conscience after renouncing his Greek and Danish titles.
Our story begins when, because of the civil war in Greece, the young prince and his family were banished to foreign lands after his father Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark, narrowly escaped execution.
Prince Phillip himself escaped certain death by hiding in a wooden apple crate which was then loaded onto the British Naval destroyer HMS Calypso, before landing in France where they set up home in a small house in the Paris suburb of Saint-Cloud, the house was lent to them from a wealthy aunt Princess George of Greece and Denmark.
Following what only can be called a miserable childhood, most of it from being shunted from family to family he joined the Royal Navy just after the 2nd World War broke out. It was here that our young prince came of age, it was here that our young prince displayed his heroic qualities.
Mentioned in dispatches awarded the cherished Greek War Cross of Valour for his bravery in the battle of Matapan, a decoration he still wears with pride today, he would go on to serve his country both in wartime and peacetime only leaving the Royal Navy once his wife Princess Elizabeth ascended to the throne.
The crew of his last ship HMS Magpie affectionately dubbed him as "Dukey."
Since leaving the Royal Navy Prince Phillip or as he is now dubbed HRH the Duke of Edinburgh has devoted himself to serving both his wife HRH Queen Elizabeth 2nd and the people of Great Britain.
He has now at the age of 96 retired from public life, but while serving his country, he completed 22,219 solo engagements his last engagement was on the 2 August 2017, where he met for the last time the British Royal Marines, his last jester to his fellow soldiers happened when he was leaving the parade ground, the Duke simply turned towards the mustered troops and simply doffed his bowler hat.
Join us as we find out just who this great man is both in wartime and in peacetime.
