Royal Pains: A Rogues’ Gallery of Brats, Brutes, and Bad Seeds
Leslie Carroll
The bad seeds in the family trees of the most powerful royal houses of Europe often became the most rotten of apples: uber-violent autocrats Vlad the Impaler and Ivan the Terrible literally reigned in blood. Lettice Knollys strove to mimic the appearance of her cousin Elizabeth I and even stole her man. And Pauline Bonaparte scandalised her brother Napoleon by having a golden goblet fashioned in the shape of her breasts. Chock-full of shocking scenes and titillating tales, Royal Pains is a rollicking compendium of the most infamous and insatiable blue-bloods of Europe.
