My latest article in The 49th Shelf discusses the history of royal parenting in Canada. My new book, Raising Royalty: 1000 Years of Royal Parenting, examines how twenty sets of royal parents raised their children over the course of the past thousand years. Key moments in this history of royal parenting took place in Canada including the 2016 royal tour by William and Kate, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, Princess Diana’s warm embrace of her two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry on the Royal Yacht Britannia in Toronto Harbour, and the birth of Princess Margriet of the Netherlands in Ottawa during the Second World War.
