"...an extraordinary, unique, and inherently fascinating study of the impact genetics had on the family lines of the aristocracy from Ancient Egypt down to the European Monarchies...an outstanding and unreservedly recommended addition to personal, professional, community, and college/university library Royal History/Biography collections." - Midwest Book Review
When we think of kings and queens, we conjure up illusions of a magnificent kingdom where His and Her Majesties live in the lap of luxury and want for nothing. While this may be true, life wasn't always as perfect.
With the history of royal families comes a long and twisted history of genetics and family intermarriage that is often swept aside.
In Ms Cummings' latest book, she takes us through the complicated spider's web of royal marriages. She tells us of the atrocities of the Ptolemy Dynasty as they continued to marry brothers and sisters to fend off political outsiders. She tells us about the centuries of intermarriage in European's most prominent royal family, along with the devastating results that came with it.
We will learn of the devastation of mental illness that befell reigning monarchs of The Hundred Years War and plagued George III of England, Juana of Castile and the Wittlebach Empire. She will also tell us of the desperation that fell upon the Russian Royal Family as their only heir to the throne grew ill with haemophilia. She will also go into depth about the notorious Hapsburgs, the decades of physical and mental ailments that tormented them, and how their empire ended with the most inbred royal in history, Charles II of Spain.
After hearing the heartwrenching stories of these great monarchs, you'll find that you can't help but sympathize with them as you read about how genetics was the ultimate game-changer in most families.
