Royal Coronations by Lucinda Gosling

The monarchy has made many concessions to the modern age, but the affirming rituals of the coronation - the pageantry, the theatre and the symbolism - are centuries old. Looking at the British coronation from its beginnings, this title takes the reader on a thematic journey through the history and meaning of these elaborate ceremonies.
Lucinda Gosling studied history at the University of Liverpool and has worked in the picture library industry since 1993, currently at historical specialist, Mary Evans Picture Library, and formerly as manager of the Illustrated London News archive. Her interests and areas of specialisation include illustration, royalty and World War I, and she is a regular contributor of features on royal history to Majesty magazine. She authored the successful illustrated Royal Weddings and Diamond Jubilee (Haymarket and ILN Ltd).
