The Royal Mews behind Buckingham Palace is the department of the Royal Household responsible for the horse-drawn and motor travel arrangements of Her Majesty the Queen and members of the Royal Family. Its buildings form a hidden village of stables, workshops, garages, homes, offices, and the MEWS community, despite modernization, flourishes on customs and traditions that have been handed down over nine reigns. In this book Mary Stewart-Wilson and David Cripps presents an unrivalled account of the carriages, horses, harness, livery and cars of the Royal Mews.
