With the recent crusades of Bush, Blair and company it is fashionable to look back at the medieval crusades with a revisionist eye. David Miller does not fall into this trap seeing King Richard's crusade as practical mission to secure access to Jerusalem for western pilgrims. A right they had enjoyed until the Turkoman invasions of the 11th Century. Miller sets out the history then admirably describes Richard's brilliant military campaign. To put together such a large operation in hostile territory thousands of miles from home was a feat of genius. If you want to be taken to the heart of Richard's campaign, without bleeding heart liberal moralizing this is the book. >>More Details |

Kings, Queens, Bones and Bastards: Who's Who in the English Monarchy from Egbert to Elizabeth IIby: David Hilliam 1999-11 Best Selling > Books > British Royalty |
||
|
Whilst by no means a bad book it is rather poorly organised and the information often repeated. That said the information in this book is interesting, whilst it's unlikely to satisfy any half serious academic it makes good light reading and is useful for quick reference. The author is unashamedly royalist and refuses to discuss the negatives of having a hereditary monarchy but is quick to praise its few positive points.

Ask Sir James: Life of Sir James Reid, Personal Physician to Queen Victoriaby: Michaela Reid July 18, 1996 Best Selling > Books > British Royalty |

|
Queen Victoria (and members of her family) seen through her doctor's eyes, adds a whole different and more intimate perspective of life in her court. The book has many touching scenes (Sir James arranging for the Kaiser to see his grandmother on her deathbed),many interesting anecdotes - applying nitric acid to a spot on Grand Duchess Elizabeth's face on the morning of the Jubilee procession - and some quite amusing episodes, such as Queen Victoria's reaction to the news that it was necessary to remove Prince Christian's eye after a shooting accident. Reverent and yet not fawning, Sir James seemed much more than a family doctor and the number of people who relied on his help in all kinds of ways is quite amazing. A very interesting book, filled ... Read More:

The most photographed person in the world, and still the same photos used as in other books. Nothing new here.
As a Diana collector, I wish I would have waited for this one to be on the clearance sale table. >>More Details |

No Quarter Given: The Muster Roll of Prince Charles Edward Stuart's Army, 1745-46by: Christian Aikman May 31, 2001 Best Selling > Books > British Royalty |

This book is a must for anyone researching their family connections with Scotland and the '45 rebellion. It is a reconstruction of the muster roll of the Bonnie Prince Charlie's army. There are gaps because of the sources used. I am sure that more McLarens were in the Appin regiment. The only major failing is the further reading list which excludes some of the more recent accounts. The use of the term Ecossais Royale is bizarre. Rene Chatrand, an expert, uses Royale Ecossais, which is the construction used for all French royal regiments.
