This [[authoritative]] and accessible guide to the British [[monarchy]] spans the Romano-British rulers of 55 BC to the present day [[House of Windsor]]. Generously illustrated with maps, photos, paintings, and genealogies, it contains a wealth of [[information]] on the rulers of Britain, including their policies, personalities, key dates, and legacies. Feature articles throughout the guide provide in-depth information on key royal topics, including Coronations, Regalia, the Tower of London, and - new to this edition - [[Westminster Abbey]] and [[St Paul's Cathedral]].
Revised and updated to include recent events, such as the second marriage of [[Prince Charles]], this new edition also contains a topical introductory article (under ‘Preface’) on the changing role of the monarchy. There is also a useful glossary and a list of recommended further reading.
Invaluable for students and [[teachers]] of British history, and [[ideal]] for anyone with an interest in the monarchy of [[United Kingdom|England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales]].
