SYNOPSIS: What is the role of the monarchy in Britain today? Is the Queen really a non-political figure? How much does the Crown exist in the interests of ordinary people, and are they receiving value for money? All these and many other pertinent and impertinent questions are discussed in Mr Hamilton's penetrating and enlightening analysis of an institution about which he holds strong and well-known views. He is concerned to strip away the myth, sentiment and secrecy which surround the monarchy, and argues that if we must have one it should at least exist on an open and honest basis. Openness and honesty certainly characterize Mr Hamilton's approach to his sensitive subject. The facts and figures upon which he bases his conclusions are clearly laid out in the appendices to this abrasive, entertaining book. They form a wealth of fascinating material which will surprise those who may previously have regarded his arguments as a wayward polemic. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. John Kent (illustrator).…
