A hugely entertaining collection of clever and fun limericks, one for each monarch in British history and more!

Unhappy with how his wives bred,
And when things turned sour,
Exploiting his power
He shouted out, Off with her head!

He did world history in the very successful There Was an Old Geezer Called Caesar, and now hes tackling a subject dear to all our hearts kings and queens. Theyre all in here, from Alfred the Great to our present Queen, now the longest serving monarch in history.
