Blurb:

How the monarchs of England and Scotland met their deaths has been a shocking mixture of violence, infections, overindulgence, and occasional regicide. In Mortal Monarchs, medical historian Dr. Suzie Edge examines 1,000 years of royal deaths to uncover the plots, accusations, rivalries, and ever-present threat of poison that the kings and queens of old faced.

 

Thoughts:

I follow Dr. Edge on tik tok so many of the stories I had actually heard already but it was fun to listen to her read her book. and interesting to hear a modern medical professional's view on the way historical figures passed on.
