This exciting new Pocket Guide offers an in-depth discussion of the developing role of Princess of Wales, through an account of the lives of those who have held the title. The book consists of individual biographies of nine women, each designed to be complete, but overall, complementary to one another. Linking this are themes which include the parallels between the lives of the princesses, the developing role and position in society of the Princess of Wales and the gradually increasing importance of Wales within Britain. The opening chapter reveals an introduction to the subject, explaining how the titles of Prince and Princess of Wales came into being, and brief details of some earlier princesses of the pre-Conquest Welsh kingdoms. The concluding chapter includes observations on the likely future development of the Princess's role.
