An interesting look at the Great Fire of London and how it affected the ordinary people who lived through it, not just the royals who some thought were responsible.

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars
This is an amazing book detailing regicide, which, frankly, I would have thought would be at a higher rate at 22%. I would actually love a further breakdown more by each century. I think the numbers would be crazy high for some of them.
I learned so much about the different royals in this book. I definitely don't read up on royal history all the time (although I occasionally do follow the Megan and Kate drama). So there was tons here I had never learned about.
Definitely would recommend!
