Edward VIII, the king never crowned, abandoned his throne for the woman he loved and went from being a man of honor to a man of nothing and even scorned man. His life was a tumultuous one, full of romance and legend. He was the British monarchy's turning point, and his abdication ushered in the Elizabethan era. Allowing his unlikely brother George VI to become king and the then Princess Elizabeth, later the former monarch of England, Elizabeth II, to become the first smooth heir. Edward VIII, that is the tear of the age and the best presentation of absolute romance.
