With 1,000 pages and a 7,000-name index listing in-laws and family members alike, this 187th edition is fully updated with latest births, marriages, deaths and addresses of the living members of the two hundred royal and princely sovereign houses of Europe, offering the most comprehensive guide to the histories, lineage and biographical background of each member of each Royal House. A new Diplomatic section lists national statistics, governments and government members and election statistics for each country of the reigning and formerly reigning families in Europe, the United States, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. "The Gotha", now in English, follows the original format as published annually from 1763, and is set in the customary 1930's Gotha typeface and bound in the traditional red cloth.
