(In fact, Mantel makes several observations about the rest of the English monarchy as well, but as this Guardian article points out, most people seem not to have read the actual speech. No surprises.)
Back to today's question: the speech starts with Mantel recounting how she was once asked to pick a famous person and suggest a book for them to read. She chooses Middleton and recommends Caroline Weber's Queen of Fashion: What ____ ____ Wore to the Revolution" as being relevant to the Duchess. Who is this book about?
