Panovníci království českého
Kniha klade důraz na stručný, srozumitelný a poutavě psaný text, který poskytuje základní informace o panovníkovi, jeho rodině, nejvýznamnějších událostech a osobnostech doby vlády a o zajímavostech. Důraz je kladen na představení panovníka na větším množství portrétů, od dětství až po konec života a doplňují je portréty manželek, případně dětí. Veřejnost české krále zná většinou jen na několika portrétech, které se v médiích neustále opakují, některé portréty jsou téměř neznámé, přitom jsou zajímavé a poskytují nám možnost poznat jejich osobnost. Vhodně jsou použity i mapy a zemské znaky, které ukazují, jak se postupně měnila rozloha zemí Koruny české. Kde je to vhodné, jsou doplněny fotografie nebo nákresy staveb, které jednotliví králové vybudovali.
