These three reigning monarchies are covered by this volume, which traces the Danish House of Holstein-Glücksburg from Christian IX to the present day Queen of Denmark. It also covers the Swedish House of Bernadotte since its inception, and the Kingdom of Norway from its re-establishment in 1905. The Swedish Vasa dynasty from King Adolphus Frederik, and the earlier Danish Kings from King Frederik V, are traced through to the present day. Included are the two Schleswig-Holstein Duchies, and the related houses of Great Britain, Russia and Prussia, and most of the German protestant houses.
