On 6 June 1905, the 18-year-old Cecilie zu Mecklenburg-Schwerin married the son of the last German emperor. Because of her elegance, her charisma and her social commitment, she was soon adored and loved throughout Germany. But behind the harmonious façade there were crises. The Crown Prince had numerous affairs and Wilhelm II followed his daughter-in-law with suspicion. This volume traces the life of the last German crown princess - up to her twilight years, which the once celebrated woman spent in modest circumstances in Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg.
