Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the prerogatives of the British monarchy with insights traced from their historical origins to present times. The author identifies palace land and jurisdiction as foundational rights, extending to the right to sell soil that is owned by the Crown. The book acknowledges that land rights have been subject to legislative restrictions intended to protect the royal residence from encroachment. However, it asserts that these restrictions do not apply to all land under royal ownership. The book further examines the rights and duties of the monarch in relation to mines and minerals, distinguishing between land owned by the Crown in right of the Duchy of Lancaster, and the rights of the Crown to minerals within those lands. Through various historic and modern case reviews, the book demonstrates how various courts have interpreted the monarchy's rights and interests and how these interpretations have shaped the modern legal landscape of the Crown's property rights.
