'Robert Lacey explains the historic origins of aristocratic charisma, and in his assessment of the noblemen's resistance to the democratic trends of the 20th century, he etches a memorable portrait of the sentiment, cunning and sheer snobbery that many yet enable Europe's titled families to flourish, against all the odds, into the future.'
