Synopsis

BRITAIN'S ROYAL FAMILIES is a unique reference book. For the first time, complete genealogical details of all members of the royal houses of England, Scotland and Great Britain, from 800 AD to Princess Eugenie of York and Columbus Taylor, are available in one volume. Here is the vital biographical data relating not only to every monarch, but also to their parents, siblings, wives, husbands, children both legitimate and illegitimate, grandchildren and sometimes great-grandchildren and beyond. Drawing on countless authorities both ancient and modern, BRITAIN'S ROYAL FAMILIES explores the royal familty tree in unprecedented depth, presenting many obscure facts in their dynastic content for the first time. It is an exhaustive guide to the heritage of today's royal family and as such is an invaluable source book for royalty watchers, students and researchers.

Review:
