'Viceregalism is a powerful contribution towards understanding the constitutions both of Britain and the countries of the Commonwealth, a remarkable if under-studied trans-national institution. The book brings together an impressive range of scholars who have produced essays of very high quality, essays which are both impressive and readable.'
-Vernon Bogdanor, Professor of Government, King's College London
'This excellent collection of essays by leading contemporary historians sheds important new light on the national and international role of the Crown in the twentieth century politics. It will be a revelation to those who imagine that monarchy has been of purely ceremonial significance in the modern era. It provides valuable discussions of the influence exerted by representatives of the Crown in some current and former Commonwealth Realms and their involvement in the process of decolonisation. But it also explores the part Viceregal representatives and the monarch herself played in the politics of the British isles, and provides a reminder that the powers the Queen still retains are both significant and controversial.'
-Philip Murphy, Director, Institute of Commonwealth Studies, University of London
