Authors
The following is an acknowledgement of the authors of the English Monarchs series titles, their books and the year of publication and, where known, their professional website - plus some others.
Also listed are the authors for the ‘Companion’ books and authors who commenced work on biographies but did not complete their work to publishing stage.
Honourifics have been omitted. Seeing so many Doctors and Professors in the lengthy list of this faculty of academics is quite overwhelming.
