Dust jacket notes read: "In an increasingly drab and uniform world, the royal families-whether ancient or modern-triumphantly preserve their glamour and their individuality. Some, like those of Iran and Jordan, are still repositories of vast power; others are more picturesque than practical; all provide amazingly rich and varied volume Reginald Davis-without a doubt the most experienced and best-established photographer of international royalty-has drawn from his vast collection the best photographs of fifteen ruling dynasties: those of Belgium (The House of Saxe-Coburg Gotha), Denmark (The House of Sonderborg-Glucksborg), Holland (The House of Orange), Iran (The House of Pahlavi), Japan (The Showa Era), Jordan (The House of Hashem), Liechtenstein (The House of Liechtenstein), Luxembourg (The House of Nassau), Monaco (The House of Grimaldi), Norway (The House of Glicksborg), Spain (The House of Bourbon), Sweden (The House of Bernadotte), Thailand (The House of Chakri), Tonga (The House of Kanokupolu) and the United Kingdom (The House of Windsor).
