Reviews

Marr's writing is persuasive, liberal, energized
Marr has a gift for narrative and précis, a pithy turn of phrase and an ability to unearth the familiar
Absorbing . . . particularly acute on the political aspects of constitutional monarchy, but he also writes perceptively about individual members of the Royal Family.
Contain[s] a lot of information which will be new to any but the most dedicated student of the monarchy . . . Marr is particularly interesting on the relationship between the Queen and the BBC.
