Papa had been the iron duke, so imperious that he threatened to have his manservant buried with him when he died, "at my feet, of course." By contrast, poor Armand is such an average Jean that chauffeurs, spotting him near the Daimler, ask him whom he drives for. Can this shy, sweet and sad duke ever find Miss Right? Out of this soapy dilemma, cosmopolitan, gourmettlesome Author Ludwig Bemelmans, 59, blows yet another bubble of sentimental whimsy, wry humor and worldly innocence...
