"...Having said that, I would love to get auto biography book about Sybilla...
Marianne, would you know if it has good illustrations? Thanks in advance .."
Dear Tamara, as much as Roger would like to tell more about his book on this Board he is extremely busy these days, so I hope you don't mind me replying now & telling that this book, written in close co-operation with all of Sibylla's children, incl. the present King of Sweden, gives a great insight in her (family)life & royal role.
The written part is the most important but there are some sections with plenty lovely pics.
The ones that would interest you most (...) are those showing HRH wearing Court Dress and the bejewelled portraits
* Roger's book about Queen Ingrid, as mentioned by EricVdV earlier on, is also a superb book!!
Guess you'd better start learning Swedish soon, Tamara
