Speaking to Prince Charles, then-President Obama said, “I think it’s fair to say that the American people are quite fond of the royal family... They like them much better than they like their own politicians.” This fondness is no more obvious than during a royal wedding. With upcoming nuptials for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on May 19th, May's book display features all things royal. Cheerio!
