More about the book
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.
