Although she was the daughter, sister and aunt of monarchs, Princess Mary has largely been neglected in the national memory.
But a new biography, the first one to be dedicated solely to the Princess Royal, hopes to change that by finally offering a detailed look at her life as well as never previously known information.
The Princess Mary: The First Modern Princess, set to be released on February 5, presents the British royal as the princess who redefined the role for the modern age , laying the foundations for the likes of Diana, Princess of Wales, and the Duchess of Cambridge.
Princess Mary, the only daughter of King George V and Queen Mary, was the first child of a British monarch to train and work as a nurse, the first female chancellor of a university and the first female honorary General of the British Army, according to Tatler.
