Description:
Throughout history many individuals have dreamed of becoming a king, queen, or president; some achieved success but the great majority were pure fantasists. However both types took themselves very seriously and often produced coins, banknotes, stamps, and heraldic devices as proof of their status. From ancient to modern times, from the Far East to the New World, Rebels, Pretenders & Imposters looks at amazing examples of would-be kings, caliphs, emperors, and rebel leaders. Beginning with the most famous example in history, Adam and Eve's rebellion in the Garden of Eden, RPI also looks at Zeus, Napoleon Bonaparte, and Bonnie Prince Charles (The Young Pretender), among others. It is an idiosyncratic and fascinating look at history.
