Freddy & Fredericka by Mark Helprin
Has anyone read this book -- it's a satire of sorts on the fictitious Freddy and Fredericka, Prince and Princess of Wales.
Might I say a parachute drop into New Jersey is a key moment in this book... Very interesting. Comments, reviews?

I have the book, picked it up in an airport, but I haven't had a chance to read it really. I think I got through the first chapter.

I've read about this book and I would like to read it so I'll be interested in any reviews from various members.
I just finished a book, Gone with the Windsors, by Laura Graham. It's a fictional account of a woman who was a friend of Wallis Simpson and she recounts the courtship and the crisis of the marriage of Wallis and the Prince of Wales. It refers the history at the time plus features many European Royals and it's fairly accurate. I enjoyed it.
