On Royalty

Jeremy Paxman is used to making politicians explain themselves - but royalty has always been off limits. Until now. In "On Royalty" he delves deep into the past and takes a long hard look at our present incumbents to find out just what makes them tick. Along the way he discovers some fascinating and little-known details, such as: • how Albania came to advertise in England for a king • which English queen gave birth in front of sixty-seven people • how easy it is to beat up future kings of England • and how meeting the Queen is a bit scary - whoever you are... No other book will tell you quite as much about our kings, queens, princes and princesses: who they are and what they're for.
