{"product_id":"crowning-glory-matthew-allen-9781398431324","title":"Crowning Glory","description":"As a nation, we like to think we know everything about our Kings and Queens. William I conquered in 1066, Henry VIII had six wives and Queen Victoria was 'not amused'... But do these 'pub-quiz facts' provide a genuine picture of what our monarchs were really like as living, breathing people? As the reader shall find, there is a treasure-trove of wit, wisdom and wonder waiting to be discovered. \u003cbr\u003eCrowning Glory wipes away the cobwebs of fuddy-duddy facts and breathes new life into this surprisingly addictive aspect of history. It challenges our basic understanding of the subject by introducing readers to a colourful cast of characters and revealing little-known insights. \u003cbr\u003eThis book reminds us that, behind the formality of the crown, are real human beings. Like you and me, they have known success, failure, sorrow, and laughter. The lives of our kings and queens are so much more vivid than boring, old dates, figures, and facts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Allen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 139843132X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781398431324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Austin Macauley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/19\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.68d","brand":"Matthew Allen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48013910147327,"sku":"9781398431324","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_203c75d6-575e-423f-87c1-0d9f435026bb.jpg?v=1767745534","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/crowning-glory-matthew-allen-9781398431324","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
