Did you know that
*the first king of England was Egbert?
*part of Richard I's body was buried in one place and part in another?
*the young Henry VIII was an accomplished scholar, musician, and athlete?
*the party names Whig and Tory were originally terms of contempt, meaning respectively "horse-drover" and "Irish robber"?
*Queen Victoria was related, either directly or by marriage, to the royal houses of Germany, Russia, Greece, Rumania, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and Belgium? And that she ruled her own, and this wider European family, despotically?
Delderfield's Kings and Queens of England is an invaluable guide for the student, television viewer, movie-goer, and anyone who has trouble keeping the Henrys, Richards, and Marys straight. This book gives the principal dates, events, and accomplishments of the reigns of all the monarchs of England. The material presented is interesting, entertaining, and--most important--easily accessible for quick reference.
Forty black and white reproductions of authentic portraits and genealogical trees provide added assistance in charting the sometimes confusing course of English monarchs.
Eric R. Delderfield is the author of British Inn Signs and Their Stories.
