Agreed.  Wonderful writer, and dear, dear man.

Always so helpful and encouraging, so ready to provide guidance and sound advice. A great loss indeed.

Im looking for a list of books (photo albums, biographies etc) about danish royal family. Language doesnt really matter. Please give me some advices folks

[grandduchessella]

Father-in-Law of Europe by Theo Aronson is a really good look at the family

A Royal Family is a recent book with a lot of information and photos. It's the companion book to the DVD of the same name. It's a fabulous book.

These are indeed great books, although I think that Aronsons book on the family is called "A Family of Kings".
There are many books on Danish royalty, but I presume you mean the Glücksborg dynasty? Hans Roger Madols bio on Christian IX is a very good and informative book, and i think it's translated into English.
Bo Bramsens two volume book, "Huset Glücksborg" (House of Glücksburg) is probably the most comprehensive  book on the family, covering the family from the very start and til now.
There are several bios and books about the current members of the DRF.

[Eurohistory]

Don't forget In Memoriam: King Frederik IX and Queen Ingrid of Denmark by David McIntosh and myself!

There was a documentary about Christian IX and his family on PBS that I missed, but I can't seem to remember the name of it.
Can anybody tell me the name of it?

Maybe some US forum member could be of assistance??
I heard from an American acquaintance that the series
was recently aired in the States; I think it was on the
PBS (??) network, though I'm not 100 sure! 

all the best

ah yes! A friend of mine has that whole set on DVD. The only place I can think of to find it is on the offical site for Majesty Magazine. I still have yet to see all of it! Jenna says it includes stuff about Marie Feodorovna and the Imperial family as well.

There is another thread on this somewhere on the forum, but to be brief- it is not available in the US.  It was and still may be available from Majesty Magazine [I no longer subscribe so am not sure] and is only for region 2 players.  If you have an all-region player, that is fine. If not, it is useless.

I bought my 2 DVD disc set in Australia. It is really an excellent series. It was screened on SBS TV in Australia and is available through ABC - Australian Broadcasting Commission shops. The episode "Love and Revolution" is incredible and deals with the downfall of the Romanovs. There is also an accompanying book which is also brilliant.

This series played the winter before last here on PBS. I wish it was readily available here on the USA format as it was well worth watching more than once.

My copy is Zone 4.
