Invention, passion, war and exile are but some of the elements in
this revealing new insight into Paddy Leigh Fermor's many Romanian
journeys. Starting with the `great trudge' on foot through Romania
in 1934 and ending in 1990 with his assignment for The Daily
Telegraph following the fall of Ceausescu, The Vagabond and The
Princess by Alan Ogden unravels the tapestry of fact and fiction
woven by Paddy and reveals in detail the touching story of the love
affair between the youthful writer and Balasa Cantacuzino, a
beautiful Romanian Princess. After a poignant parting on the eve of
the Second World War, they were reunited some twenty-five years
later and remained in close touch until her death. Paddy had been
the great love of her life. Alan Ogden brings great insight into
this enduring and touching relationship as well putting into
context the glamorous lost world of pre-WW2 Romania.
