About The Event
Royal watchers or not, few can ignore how Prince Harry’s $120 million film and book revelations have put him at odds with England’s royal family. The Windsors are no strangers to wrangles among heirs, struggles over divorce, and the financial strain among all aristocrats to maintain ancient family homes. Join Dr. Nancy Parrish for a compelling illustrated talk about how the twentieth-century foreground of family competitions, divorce, and aristocratic living have roiled England in the modern age. The question-and-answer session will engage audience members in discussion of whether England has reached a tipping point between admirers of the British royal family--such as the rescuers of Agecroft Hall—and pragmatists who view Prince Harry’s revelations as the beginning of a necessary dissolution of the monarchy.
