Crown and Country: A History of Royal Britain
Join HRH Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, the Queen of England's son, for a tour of some of the most famous landmarks of British history. As we travel from Hampton Court on the banks of the Thames to Windsor Castle, St Paul's Cathedral, the New Forest on to his mother's London home at Buckingham Palace and the extraordinary Brighton Pavilion on the South Coast, Edward tells us how intrigue and treason, violent death and treachery shaped the great warriors and leaders of Britain's past. Were they really heroes or villains?
