The Stewart Dynasty
註釋The Stewarts probably had more impact on British history than any other single family. As medieval barons, monarchs and pretenders to the thrones they had lost, they featured prominently in the island's government, politics, arts and society for over 600 years. This book offers a full-length history of that illustrious family for over a century. The long gallery of Stewarts is presented with wit, sympathy and colour, giving emphasis to their passionate sexuality and sinister propensity for depression. The result is a story starring a startling collage of unforgettable personalities.
