The Rise and Fall of the House of Windsor
reviewed on + 111 more book reviews


This fascinating book about Queen Elizabeth, her children and their spouses, etc. looks at the Royal Family with the thesis of whether they actually serve a function in today's world. The author has written a number of history books and is quite familiar with history of the House of Windsor (a name resulting from the familys rather recent name change following the anti-German feeling of WWI). This hardcover edition contains a number of photographs of the royals who make up this "modern" royal history. Sorry the dust jacket is missing, but book is in very good condition.
