He was a hare-brained playboy, incapable of any serious mental process, so one can rule out the accusation made: that he plotted a return to the Throne in exchange for aiding a German invasion of Britain. The canard was floated by monarchists who decided he had tarnished Royal traditions. Wallis Simpson, then his lover, was flown to Paris in the dark of night, the day they shot at her car, in a serious assassination attempt.

For example, it has long, and often been reported that the late Duke of Windsor was one. Or is the National Archives selective in its archiving of material and documents? If so, how can a fair accounting of historical events be possible? Thanks. I.

Firstly I have not called anyone Nazi or anti-Nazi. I have said he was considered "pro-Nazi" by the British. If you wish to confirm this for yourself you may check the National Archives at Kew, Richmond, UK. Incidentally I have a copy of the letter in my own stack of documents and I will be more than happy to email it you in private. I have no intention of hurting anyone, living or passed away in Goa. I am merely reporting facts as they are recorded in dusty museums and archives. Best, selma
