Robert Hardman for Charles III: New King, New Court, The Inside Story, a Toppings Event
15 May @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
A brilliant insider’s portrait of Charles III by the bestselling biographer and royal commentator Robert Hardman.
Join Toppings for an evening with renowned historian Richard Hardman who is best known for his biographical work of King Charles and the late Queen Elizabeth. This will undoubtedly be a fabulous evening of knowledge and thought, discussing his newest book, Charles III.
Faced with family dramas, political crises and questions about the future of the monarchy in Britain and elsewhere, the new King had no shortage of challenges. Robert Hardman charts a dramatic story of transition at the very top – and of a sovereign resolute in making his mark. With his unrivalled access to the Royal Family, their close friends, staff past and present plus previously unseen papers in the Royal Archives, Hardman – who is also the writer and co-producer of the BBC documentary, Charles III: The Coronation Year – reveals Charles the man as well as the monarch.
‘A superb, fascinating account of the new King, his court and the first year of his reign. Elegantly written by the most authoritative of royal historians writing today, it is deeply researched, impeccably sourced and filled with scoops and new details. This is the definitive book’ – Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of The Romanovs
