ROYAL CHILDREN

Rating:
Summary: Like Father, Like Son
Review: This is a history of British royal children from pre-Hanoverian pawns of power to current pawns of the press. This is also a good overview of the strengths and foibles that have gone into making the present House of Windsor what it is today. Just as with families everywhere, royal parents have the best of intentions. The results are children that are to varying degrees a reflection of a family's past. This book does a good job of bringing the past alive and making the present understandable to outsiders. (It also has great pictures.)
