Blending history and narrative with anecdote, the book looks at royal scandals old and new, and at the mythology which surrounds royalty. It also examines the attendant paraphernalia of royalty - its palaces, ceremonies, customs and rites. It provides coverage of key events such as the Abdication crisis, the Bedchamber crisis, the Wars of the Roses, and royal ceremonies and mythology such as Maundy money, cramp rings, King's Evil and Trooping the Colour. Appendices give genealogical tables and chronological lists of contemporary European sovereigns.
