...Italy's gnarled and hardy little Vittorio Emanuele III; The Netherland's marsh-mallowy but masterful Queen Wilhelmina; Norway's tall brooding Haakon VII (George V's brother-in-law); and the rheumy-eyed royal Swedish marvel who can still play tennis. 76-year-old Gustaf V. To get these four to London, however, proved impractical and only European royalty of English blood were expected- the King's fondly beloved sister, quiet Queen Maude of Norway; his pushing, unwelcome cousin, Dowager Queen Marie of Rumania; his sorrowful, most welcome cousin, ex-Queen Victoria Eugenie...

Traditional kitchen ranges then were temperamental, depending on the manipulation of hot gases through flues. Dalén came up instead with a well-insulated, cast-iron stove that stored warmth efficiently and demanded only a small heat source. The radiant heat also proved successful in cooking food without drying it out, and he named the stove after his company, Svenska Aktiebolaget Gas Accumulator...
