Reseña del libro "The Royal Palaces: Secrets and Scandals (en Inglés)"

Royal expert and TV historian Kate Williams opens the doors to 30 palaces, castles, and houses that have been connected with the British royals over the centuries. Well known for her expert insights in the media and on countless royal documentaries, Kate takes you on a tour of the UK's most fascinating palaces, past and present, to unveil the scandalous and little-known stories hidden between their walls. Included in the book are such famous royal residences as Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, but also lesser-known locations such as Falkland Palace and Beaumaris Castle. Covering the breadth of British history, there are tales from the Medieval era to the present. Among the palaces included are: Hatfield House, where young Elizabeth I held court before finding out she would become queenWhitehall Palace and Banqueting Hall, home to Charles II's secret laboratory, where he tried to create an elixir of youth using human skullsGlamis Castle, the inspiration for Shakespeare's MacbethGreenwich Palace, where Elizabeth I survived an assassination attempt when poison was placed in her saddleFrogmore House, a long-time royal residence used by Queen Charlotte, King George V and Princess AlexandraOsborne House, designed by Prince Albert in the style of an Italian Renaissance palazzoWindsor Castle, the famous residence of Queen Elizabeth II before her deathRevel in the glory and glamor of royal life, as well as the salacious scandals that defined these palaces. The book is vividly brought to life by numerous beautiful illustrations by James Oses, and will be irresistible to anyone interested in British royalty and the history of Great Britain.
