Vague History of Kings and Queens

by Kevin Hassall

Forget 1066 and All That and read the new really vague history of England's Kings and Queens. Its humourous, satirical and challenging - for history buffs and novices alike. Find out the truth about Richard Coeur de Cher and Mad George. Marvel at Alfred and not Cnut, holding back the waves. Follow the Romans in their introduction of pizzas to England. Sympathise with the Black Prince dying a Black Death after the battles of Crazy and Poisson. Wonder at the Duke of Medina Davidowena chasing the great buccaneer, Sir Francis Chichester, around the channel singeing his beard ... A view of history you cannot afford to ignore.
