Presented in an accessible, chronological format, this essential guide will fill in all those gaps in your history knowledge, remind you of those details you'd forgotten, and provide some fascinating and amusing facts about one of the longest-running monarchies in the world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An essential guide to the British monarchy for those who should already know everything but don't.
