"He wasn't obsessed with politics, but it was always there," says Charles Younger, a Midland surgeon and longtime Bush jogging partner. A famously eligible bachelor, Bush had also surprised friends by courting and marrying--in just three months--a librarian named Laura Welch, who was as reserved and knowing as he was brash and noisy.

The saga of Caroline and her younger sister Stephanie is low rent compared with the Brits', but their celebrity and notoriety help attract tourists--as did their father Rainier III's 1956 marriage to the actress Grace Kelly, who died in a 1982 crash. If only brother Albert could find a bride like dear old Mom--and sire an heir. Otherwise, France has the right to gobble up Monaco...
