From the bestselling author Charles Spencer, a brilliant insider’s history of the Spencer family. Travelling centuries through the Spencers’ family and their wide-ranging roles in Britain’s history, Charles moves from the sheep-farmers of the sixteenth century through the Civil War to the 19th century when the third Earl was one of the architects of the 1832 Reform Bill, and up to recent years and the death of Princess Diana. Filled with new visions of great historic events, odd characters and intimate personal matters, this is a hugely satisfying history of one of England's great families.
