The lives of the kings and queens of England

This essential reference is a concise, accessible guide to the great dynasties of English royalty. The collection of biographical sketches encompasses the period from the establishment of monarchical power by the early Norman kings through the reign of Elizabeth II. This updated edition includes a new essay describing the recently tumultuous reign of the Windsors. Included are details of the weddings of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer, and of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson; the acrimonious collapse of the marriages; the effect the media have had on the royal family's image; and the fire at Windsor Castle. Such recent events as Diana's tragic death, the decommissioning of the "Royal Yacht Britannia," and the launching of Queen Elizabeth's own website are also discussed.
