Prince Karl and Princess Elizabeth family (parents of GD Ludwig IV)

[Helen]

The letters between Prince Wilhelm of Hesse and his cousin Ludwig II of Bavaria have been published recently! In German but with many interesting pictures and facsimiles!

Interesting! Why not state the title, editor, publisher, and ISBN of this publication? I guess you were referring to :

" Hätt' ich Flü­gel, um mich zu Dir schwin­gen zu kön­nen, ... "
Editor: Maria Seitz;
Publisher : Toeche Mittler Verlagsbuchhandlung, Darmstadt;
ISBN-10: 3878201346 ; ISBN-13: 9783878201342 .

Thanks. Both Wilhelm & Ludwig II were very good looking young men. I would love to order it. The book is published in Darmstadt ?

I would be interested as well, even though I do not read German very well. It looks quite a library volume to me.

[Eric_Lowe]

Yes. Would love to know more about the Bavarian-Hesse connection. People usually get floored when I told them Ella & Mad Ludwig II were cousins...
