Author: Gareth Russell
Narrator: John Telford
The popular and "scrupulous historian" (Daily Mail, London) Gareth Russell presents five hundred years of British history-from King Henry VIII to Queen Elizabeth II-as seen through the doorways of the exquisite Hampton Court Palace. Architecturally breathtaking and rich in splendid art and décor, Hampton Court Palace has been the stage of some of the most important events in British history, such as the commissioning of King James's version of the Bible, the staging of many of Shakespeare's plays, and Queen Elizabeth II's coronation ball. Accessible, engaging, and unputdownable, The Palace takes us into every room in the castle, revealing the ups and downs of royal history and illustrating what was at play politically, socially, and economically at the time. An engaging and charming history book, The Palace makes you feel as if you were in the room as history was made.
