An exploration of the British monarchy from the retreat of the Romans up until the modern day.
The monarchy is one of Britain's longest surviving institutions as well as one of its most tumultuous and revered. In this masterful book, David Starkey looks at the monarchy as a whole, charting its history from Roman times, to the Wars of the Roses, the chaos of the Civil War, the fall of Charles I and Cromwell's emergence as Lord Protector all the way up until the Victorian era when Britain's monarchs came face-to-face with modernity.
This brilliant collection of biographies of Britain's kings and queens provides an in-depth examination of what the British monarchy has meant, what it means now and what it will continue to mean.
This bestselling book by David Starkey, the Sunday Times bestselling author, is a top pick for anyone interested in the history of the British monarchy. It's a best choice for those who want to understand the tumultuous and revered institution that has survived the test of time.
For fans of Tracy Borman (Crown & Sceptre), Alison Weir (Against Our Better Judgment), Ian Mortimer (The Time Traveller's Guide to Regency Britain), Marc Morris (The Anglo-Saxons), and Antonia Fraser (Mary Queen Of Scots).
