Customer Reviews

Please Release the Documentary on DVD!

I love this book dearly, and it would be awesome if the BBC would release the 13-part documentary that it is based on in DVD format. There was a lot of material in the program that is, understandably, not included in the book.

Beautiful, factual.

Even if you don't read a word, you won't be able to put this book down til you have looked at the artwork and interior pictures. The author tries very well to be non political, factual, and clear. A time line and many illustrations are wonderful. Great for non British trying to follow the Royal history. Even if you don't read a word, there are many pages suitable for framing - and at this price - suitable to cut up for decopage.
