Two kings, father and son, with uniquely different personalities. Through sources as varied as masques, statues, poems, and medals, a picture of these Stuart monarchs, their characters and their politics emerges. "Remarkably and immensely readable...A just yet compassionate study of two complex, muddled, fissured human beings caught in the most difficult of crafts--kingship...It should not be missed by anyone."--J. H. Plumb, "New York Review of Books."
