The story of the kings and queens of England is an enthralling and sometimes tragic one. Starting with Celtic Britain, this pictorial survey takes us through the establishment of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, the Norman conquest, the medieval dynasties, Tudors and Stuarts and Hanoverians and the modern age and royalty of today.
