A Visual Encyclopedia of Every King and Queen of Britain, from Saxon Times through the Tudors and Stuarts to Today.

In this beautifully illustrated and fully updated edition, Charles Phillips charts the complete history of the royal families of Britain.

Beginning in the earliest times with the legend of King Arthur, Eric Bloodaxe and the real-life history of Macbeth, and reaching the death of Queen Elizabeth II and the crowning of Charles III, he describes the lives and legends of the kings and queens of Britain, their consorts and children, and the pretenders, usurpers and regents who played a role in the making of the United Kingdom.

Fact boxes highlight the essential events of each reign, as well as maps, charts and family trees.

Over 500 fine-art paintings, sculptures, engravings, artefacts, photographs, maps and illustrations reveal the heritage and pageantry of royal Britain.

A valuable reference book for any historian, this guide will fascinate every reader interested in one of the longest running monarchies in the world.

Charles Phillips is a graduate of Oxford University and holds an MA from the University of Westminster, London. He has written The Illustrated History of Knights and the Golden Age of Chivalry and was a contributing author to The Chronicle of the Royal Family.
