'Brilliantly succinct… a fascinating, fact-packed book' DAILY MAIL
From Alfred's burning of the cakes to the coronation of King Charles III, here is the definitive account of an institution that has shaped the Britain of today.
In this brief but fact-filled book Stephen Bates explores the long, often troubled history of the British monarchy, telling the stories behind the symbols and bringing to life the personalities behind the legends. And as the curtain rises on the reign of King Charles III, he asks what might lie ahead for the world’s best-known royal family.
