Description
Includes examples from throughout history, including Robert - the eldest son of William the Conqueror, Edward - the Black Prince and Bonnie Prince Charlie. Explores themes relating to the line of succession - what happened when an heir was deemed inappropriate; the power vacuums that can result from an early death; loyalty and duty in the face of scandal. Offers an interesting different perspective on the Royal family - these nearly men are often relegated to footnotes in the stories of others, but here Mantle shines the spotlight on those who almost took the throne.
