Entertaining… superb… history needs anecdote to make us relate to it, something Tinniswood [does] brilliantly.
Daily Telegraph, Books of the Year
This book will be greatly enjoyed… [Behind the Throne] has plenty…splendid nuggets.
Hugo Vickers, The Tablet
Entertaining… Behind the Throne…contains gems
Simon Heffer, **Books of the Year**, Daily Telegraph
Tinniswood is one of our finest historians and he brings to life the reality of royal life behind the scenes in stunning detail. If you want to know about the private lives of monarchs, this brilliant, beautifully illustrated account will more than satisfy.
Alison Weir, BBC History Magazine, **Books of the Year**
Penetrating and enjoyable. It is very fluently written, spiced with wit, and always judicious.
Clarissa Campbell, Times Literary Supplement
