Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. Third Edition Revised. This is the third edition, revised, of a book which has proved itself an invaluable reference work, and has steadily sold many thousands of copies. It provides a unique summary of the careers of all the Kings and Queens of England from the early Saxons to Queen Elizabeth II. The character of each monarch is discussed, and the principal events of each reign are briefly described. The way in which kings shaped and were shaped by their own time emerges vividly; so too does the gradual change in the role of the monarchy as government by elected Parliament evolved. The dates of the birth, reign and death of each king-or queen-and particulars or marriages and children are immediately available at the head of each chapter. The successive dynasties are clearly indicated, and genealogical trees show just how the hereditary throne has been perpetuated. There are also notes on the two World Wars, a list of Britain's Prime Ministers, and much other information handily presented. This is the basic history that young people need for their studies and that older people always wish they could remember. There are thirty-two pages of plates, giving portraits of the majority of the kings and queens and also many line drawings in the text.

Dark blue or grey boards, spine titled in gilt. Ex-library with usual various faults. Reading copy only in dust-wrapper. Reflections and reminiscences of flyfishing the Welsh Border streams. "Fishing books may teach or may beguile. This is not a teaching book and to say that it is a beguiling one would be to claim kinship with better men, for to beguile, so my dictionary tells me, is to divert attention from anything tedious or painful, and to do that a writer needs a goose quill or a nib of gold. We may assume that the first was used by the author of The Compleat Angler, and the second by the author of Where the Bright Waters Meet. I, alas, have had to make do with a ballpoint. However, if these reflections and recollections lighten an hour or two, that ubiquitous instrument will have served a not ignoble end." (taken from the author's foreword).
