Summary | "Speeches and Addresses of H. R. H. the Prince of Wales: 1863-1888" by Edward VII is a historical collection of speeches and addresses delivered by the Prince of Wales, compiled during the late 19th century. This compilation highlights the Prince's public engagements and the various significant topics he addressed over a period spanning twenty-five years, reflecting both his royal duties and personal interests. The text serves to underscore his role in British society, particularly after the passing of his father, and aims to remind readers of his contributions during a pivotal time in the monarchy. The opening of this collection sets the stage for an exploration of the Prince's formative years and his initial forays into public life following his marriage in 1863. The text introduces the reader to his early experiences, detailing significant milestones that shaped his character and leadership style. The preface explains the rationale behind compiling the speeches, emphasizing the importance of royal representation in numerous charitable and cultural events, and expressing the hope that the records of these addresses will resonate with a contemporary audience, offering insights into the Prince's vision and dedication to public service.
