Requests:  0 Summary:  To refer to the private life of Charles II is to abuse the adjective. His personal life was anything but private. His amorous liaisons were largely conducted in royal palaces surrounded by friends, courtiers and literally hundreds of servants and soldiers. Gossip radiated throughout the kingdom. Charles spent most of his wealth and his intellect on gaining and keeping the company of women, from the lowest sections of society such as the actress Nell Gwyn to the aristocratic Louise de Kérouaille. Some of Charles' women played their part in the affairs of state, coloring the way the nation was run. The astonishing private life of Charles II reveals much about the man he was and why he lived and ruled as he did. The King's Bed tells the compelling story of a king ruled by his passion.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 941.06609 Charles II Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library LLH Closed Stacks 941.06609 Charles II Jo Checked out 06/25/2024 Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Biography B Charles II Jo Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
