The eventful history of British coronations from 1066 to the present day.From the crowning of Charles III, thirtynine coronations have been held in Westminster Abbey since the Norman Conquest. Only two monarchs Edward V and Edward VIII were uncrowned, and a further twenty or so Scottish monarchs were crowned elsewhere, usually at either Scone Abbey or Holyrood Abbey.In The Throne, Ian Lloyd turns his inimitable, quickwitted style to these key events in British royal history, providing fascinating anecdotes and interesting facts: William the Conquerors Christmas Day crowning, during which jubilant shouts were mistaken by his guards as an assassination attempt; the dual coronation of William and Mary in 1689; the paredback Half Crownation of William IV; and the televised spectacle of Elizabeth IIs 1953 ceremony.Detailing everything from the famous Coronation Chair made for Edward I and the Crown Jewels to the infamously uncomfortable Gold State Coach this is a truly spectacular celebration of British culture and the ultimate pomp of royalty.
