Calling all Anglophiles (and I know there are some of you out there) - I'm looking for books about British history, specificaly about the history of the British monarchy. Recommend your favorites; I'm looking for any and all suggestions.

(and you can just blame Morrissey for this. Indeed, you can.)

I tend to read biographies over broader histories, but just posted a list of my favorite books at http://www.osmond-riba.org/lis/journal/2004_05_02_j_archive.htm#108369273390756235 (which should upload to [livejournal.com profile] riba_rambles in about five minutes).

Also, you might want to check http://www.royalty.nu/ for more recommendations. http://www.royalty.nu/Europe/England/index.html#books

Wow! Thanks for all the recommendations. I'm going to have to definitely plan a trip to the library to seek out books.

Depending how quickly you need them (and how we can get them to you), I've got copies of the books by Weir and Starkey I could lend.
And, as I said, there's only one lending copy of King James & the History of Homosexuality in the local library networks, and I've got to return it to the BPL.
