<p>[QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 4554090, member: 110350"]It wouldn't surprise me if there were a practical reason -- having nothing to do with "political correctness" -- for the author's not adding details about the lives of the rulers portrayed. I doubt that he was given unlimited space. The more space devoted to text, the less room for the wonderful photographs, which are the whole point of this book. Information about the rulers' lives and reigns is easily available online in multiple places. Photographs like these are not. The choice seems easy to make.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
