Summary |
Whenever the British Press wants to attack the Royal Family, they make a jibe about a oetheir foreign rootsa . The Royalsa " as they saya " are simply a posh version of German invaders. But did German relatives really influence decisions made by any British monarchs or are they just an a oeimagined communitya, invented by journalists and historians? The Royal Archives at Windsor gave the authorsa " among others John RAhl, doyen of 19th century monarchical history a " open access to Royal correspondences with six German houses: Hanover, Prussia, Mecklenburg, Coburg, Hesse and Battenberg. |
