The Queen’s Funeral Reminds Buck of This Great Book

It’s Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, and although many Americans like Buck feel no connection to the monarch of another country, it’s big ratings on TV.

Some people like watching curling in the Olympics, too. To each his own.

The funeral does bring to mind a fantastic World War I book, The Guns of August by Barbara Tuchman.

It’s really about just the beginning and the lead-up to it, explaining how so many of these royal families were related to one another. It’s one of the things about Game of Thrones that’s so accurate.

In any case, condolences to the British people. We’ll know what this feels like in America when Dolly Parton dies.
