Overview
Let's be honest: we all have a favorite royal, whether it's Princess Diana, Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, or the late Queen Elizabeth II. But how many of us actually understand how the institution works? Have you ever wondered why a move from one residence to another is significant? Or gotten lost in a tangle of titles and protocols that no one ever explains? And why does it matter if someone has broken away from “the Firm” to tell their story?
The Royal-TEA fills in these gaps, taking you through the storied past and complicated present of the British monarchy, complete with clear definitions, sharp analyses, and fascinating anecdotes that explore the systems of law, tradition, and power surrounding the royal family. You'll learn what the aristocracy’s ranks and titles mean, how succession really works, and the details behind royal finances, education, and protocol. The Royal-TEA also explores the grandeur of royal ceremony, such as coronations, weddings, state visits, and garden parties—as well as royal fashion, jewels, and pastimes. And, of course, the infamous scandals!
Whether you're a longtime royal watcher, enthusiast, or skeptic, The Royal-TEA is essential reading for anyone curious about the legacy, power, complexities, and future of the British royal family.
