Publisher's description:

What does it mean to be royal? At a time when the monarch no longer rules, the concept of royalty grows ever more elusive. The intellectual argument for the abolition of the monarchy is strong, and yet public interest in the royals continues to grow. This book seeks to find out just how important the Royal Family is to our national identity.
