He takes a long hard look at our present incumbents to find out just what makes them tick. Along the way he discovers some fascinating and little-known details. Such as: how Albania came to advertise in England for a king which English queen gave birth in front of 67 people how easy it is to beat up future kings of England and how meeting the Queen is a bit scary - whoever you are... No other book will tell you quite as much about our kings, queens, princes and princesses: who they are and what they're for.'Paxman's book is everyhing that royalty is not allowed to be - witty, stylish, intelligent, pugnacious and political.
