Royal Wedding Preparations

Did you know there's a rather significant wedding happening this week? You may have heard about it in the news.

There certainly is something fascinating about the grandeur and ceremony behind it all, even if you haven't been a close follower of the royal family...and if you haven't, there's still time to catch up! Check out these titles for some insider knowledge on this famous clan:

Behind the Palace Doors, by Michael Farquhar details the scandalous (sometimes humorously so) side of the monarchy, starting all the way back with Henry VIII.


The Firm: the Troubled Life of the House of Windsor, by Penny Junor is an often shocking glance into the inner workings of the current royal family.


Perhaps groom-to-be William will get some advice from his grandparents, whose own relationship is highlighted in Philip and Elizabeth: Portrait of a Royal Marriage, by Gyles Brandreth.

William and Harry by Katie Nicholl is an intimate biography of the "heir and the spare."

Or if you're looking for something a bit lighter to get you in the wedding spirit, you might find a nuptially-themed novel from our catalog to suit your fancy.

So grab a big piece of cake (in honor of the wedding, of course!) and dig in!
