Coronations through the centuries
The first truly in depth book about Coronations over the centuries. Sir Roy Strong writes in an academic yet down to earth style. Although this is not exactly a book to read at bedtime, it is great to dip into for the background to the most sacred moment of a reign. The ceremonies of Coronation are steeped in tradition and Sir Roy explains the meanings to the varies sections of the ceremony.
