SUMMARY:Author’s Talk—American Crown: From Revolutionaries to Royalty\, The Story of Prince William’s American Heritage
DESCRIPTION:For the first time\, Britain will have a monarch whose ancestors fought in the American Revolution against the very crown he will bear. But what are Prince William’s family connections to the Revolutionary War? \nIndependent historian Stephanie Green discussing her new book that highlights William’s connection to the American Revolution and how past generations can shape the Prince of Wales’s role in the future of Britain\, America\, and the world. \nStemming from the roots of Diana\, Princess of Wales\, Prince William’s ancestry includes numerous American rebels. The Spencer family had a friendship with the Washington clan of Sulgrave Manor\, whose family produced the first president of the United States. On Diana’s maternal side\, American ancestors fought in the Revolution in New England\, became successful in the new nation\, and then sent a daughter across the Atlantic Ocean to marry into the British elite. Embodying more interconnected history than any of his predecessors\, William’s sense of his own role in the world is markedly different from anyone who’s ever held the throne. \nRegistration is requested.
