Time to do this again…

    Time to re-publish this which applies very well now. Any book about a Royal or even by one should be turned at the first opportunity. I first published this some years ago but it’s good for now. Turn them!     As we approach the bookbuying season it’s time to remind you to be a revolutionary. Publishers are notorious for churning out the most appalling rubbish in the hope that someone will buy it for Christmas for an unsuspecting friend or relative.
