“At 3 p.m. on Christmas Eve George took the children to the coach house, where long tables covered with white tablecloths groaned with joints of beef. The room stank of raw meat. All the estate workers – about 300 people – waited outside, and each family received a joint: George calculated that one-and-a-half tons of beef were distributed among the 1,420 people living on the estate.45”
Jane Ridley, George V: Never a Dull Moment

“between 1862”
Jane Ridley, Bertie: A Life of Edward VII

“King Edward, who "smoke cigars, was addicted to and entente cordials, married a Sea King's daughter and invented appendicitis," pursued a policy of peace that "was very successful and culminated in the Great War to End War.”
Jane Ridley, The Heir Apparent: A Life of Edward VII, the Playboy Prince
