A light-hearted and irreverent history of English monarchs, from William I to Edward VII, written in rhyming couplets.
Monarchs are tidily presented in chronological order. Key points are pithily described preceded by a summary of the relevant Royal House.
A handy overview lists who succeeded whom (by primogeniture or other, less pleasant, means) and their familial relationship.
Additionally includes, inter alia, the significance of Elizabeth of York, the tenacity of the Stuarts Pretenders, the inexorability of the British Empire, plus the Wars of the Roses (rose by rose) and the true motive for the founding of the Church of England.
