Description
Few royal families have influenced European history in the 20th century as much as the British one. A prominent French historian traces the history of the family from the late 19th century, specifically from 1917, when King George V adopted the family name of Windsor in an effort to sever ties with the German roots of the dynasty. The author describes the family's tribulations, the infamous history of King Edward VIII, and the brave stance of his brother George VI during World War II. The book concludes with the life story of the current British queen and her family up to the early 21st century.
