The Royal Families Of Europe by Gerrit Antonie Petrus Drotsky and Geoffrey Hindley

As fascinating as it is informative, this chronicle of Europe's most enduring system of government-monarchy-explores the many colorful and often controversial facets of an institution that has survived revolution, warfare, regicides, national strife, and the occasional sheer incompetence of the head beneath the crown. While it considers monarchical history as well as the tales, intrigues, scandals, and historical gossip that have attached themselves to both the British and continental monarchies, this always engaging volume also speculates upon the future of European monarchy as a vital and viable form of government after the year 2000. This 1979 McGraw-Hill Hardback is in good condition. Heavy; Large; DJ. Dust jacket has been encased a protective plastic slip.
