The author of this wonderful, popular and fun guide to living royal dynasties, Patrick Weber, is a zealous royalist, that is, a person who simply adores KINGS. The monarchy and the splendor of crowns fascinated him as a child, and since then his interest has not waned. Moreover, today he is considered one of the best specialists in this field. The result of his many years of observation and research is this book, in which he opens us a secret door into the behind-the-scenes life of monarchs, wittily and subtly telling about such details that are usually hidden from the eyes of mere mortals: the bad habits of kings, the oddities of protocol, curious incidents at court, marriages and divorces, debunked myths and much more. By the way, Patrick very successfully turned his hobby into a profession. Today he is a royal chronicler for the Belgian royal court.
