One of the most successful families that England has produced, the Spencer dynasty has never lost its instinct for survival. Now headed by Charles Spencer - Diana's younger brother and uncle to Princes William and Harry - the Spencer family will play a crucial role in the future of the British monarchy." "Blood Royal: The Story of the Spencers and the Royals tells how the Spencers gained their power, how they used it, and how they finally achieved their grandest dynastic marriage of all in 1981 through the union of Diana Spencer with Charles Mountbatten Windsor, Prince of Wales."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

It is a great and glorious tradition the world over - to vehemently state one thing and then do the exact opposite. Royals are doing it, reformed smokers are doing it, and politicians are virtually synonymous with it. Welcome to the heyday of hypocrisy. From the Everyday Hypocrites (cyclists, white hip-hop fans, reality television-haters) to the truly pungent Stinking Hypocrites (chav-haters, green campaigners and anti-Americans), Julie Burchill and Chas Newkey-Burden pull no punches in their witty harangue of those who shamelessly say one thing and do another. Features the modern hypocrite's favourite holiday destinations, sporting heroes and the hilarious Hypocrites' Ultimate Weekend.
