Complete overview of the fate of the Belgian princesses, from Charlotte to Elisabeth. The successor that could not be missed after the success of Six Kings and Six Queens. Stories of Tragedy, Glory and Happiness. With a clear family tree of the royal family After the success of Six Kings and Six Queens, a successor was inevitable. Following the birth of Princess Elisabeth, the tenth Princess of Laeken, that successor has now arrived with Ten Princesses. This book tells the story of the Belgian king's daughters from Princess Charlotte, the daughter of Leopold I, to the future Queen, Princess Elisabeth. The fortunes of these ten great ladies from Belgian history are very varied: fairytale princess lives are juxtaposed with stories about the harsh reality of growing up at court, an alternation of drama, glory and happiness. Henri Van Daele knows how to intertwine these stories in a smooth way with the background of the political, socio-economic and cultural changes from 1830 to the present day.
