5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, 3 Dec 2008
By Sylvia Reed (Lincolnshire, UK) - See all my reviews
This is a book I keep going back to, both for information and for pleasure. It is very readable, whether starting at the beginning or just dipping into.
I especially like the timelines which put the monarchs into social and political context, and also the way their character and personality is brought out.
