Product Overview
The royal families of Europe have all featured in the conflicts which have marred the continent in the 20th century.

This book takes the reader on a journey through the role played by the royal families of Europe, either collectively or individually, in the development of European military history. Every royal family is covered, providing an insight into an often-ignored element in the region's history.
