This latter was a handsome young man with fine features. He could be mistaken for a Caucasian highlander, and in his general appearance he came closest to such a type. Insanely brave, he had been twice severely wounded and lived in Niš for treatment. He was burdened with idleness, but they did not want to give him command of even a battalion, because they feared that he would ruin it and himself. Prince Alexander was the exact opposite of his brother. He was not as handsome as George, marred by his spectacles and slouching shoulders. He was as secretive and reserved as George was impetuous. Events came to pass in such a way that the Prince soon found himself in a position of responsibility. He became heir by unnatural means. The example of his brother was always before his eyes. He early began to be self-aware and developed self-constraint and concealment.
