Albion, Vol. 31, No. 1 'Williams has brought some important critical scrutiny to the Marxist cliche that the monarchy is an invented tradition of the late nineteenth century meant by the bourgeoisie to mystify the Victorian working classes...Williams offers both encouragement to would-be critics of the monarchy and a calming historical perspective to those who would be king.'
