Then this book is for you. Every history enthusiast and royal watcher will find it captivating from the very first page to the last. This book isn’t like other conventional accounts that rely on drama, speculation, or repetitive historical details. Instead, Mapping the Monarchy is rooted in solid scientific research. It builds genealogical links and traces intergenerational connections between kings, queens, and the many descendants who followed. While the book highlights the most prestigious members of the upper royal hierarchy, the author also sheds light on royal mistresses and lesser-recognized figures who influenced the course of the monarchy in their own ways.
