This revised edition delves into the lives of each monarch, tracing their career and the history of their final resting place.

Detailed diagrams are included for major sites, making this a valuable resource for both visitors and students. A comprehensive list of monarchs, family trees, and an extensive bibliography complete the book, providing a wealth of information on Britain's royal burial grounds.
