Royal Gatherings in London: April 25-26, 2015

Dear Friends,

I’m now back in the USA…arrived last night at home after a 36-hour return journey!

Our family spent two wonderful weeks in Costa Rica basking in the sun, sand and surf, much to the enjoyment of our son, who must be related to fish!

I am sharing with you more information about the upcoming ROYAL GATHERINGS in London conference…

DATE AND TIMES:

We gather on April 25 at 930am. Introductions will take about 45 minutes and once concluded the first lecture will start us off!

We expect to be done by 530-600pm.

On April 26, we will begin at 10000am and expect to conclude by 530-600pm.

Each lecture will last between 40-45 minutes and will be followed by at least 15-20 minutes of open discussion and question time!

We feel it is EXTREMELY important to open the floor to the participants to address questions and listen to meaningful contributions that you all surely can add!

Other vendors of royal memorabilia have been invited to participate. Their presence is pending arrangements to be made with them.

HOTELS:

While our conferences in San Francisco and The Hague take place at hotels, London’s conference does not. Bloomsbury is filled with many available options in this department.

We hope to see you partake of what will become a yearly venue in London.

Best wishes, Arturo, Ian and Katrina

EUROHISTORY: New Conference in London!

Following the successful hosting of our royal weekend in The Hague, Eurohistory and Hoogstraten English Bookstore with Rosvall Royal Books, have joined forces with esteemed royal expert Ian Shapiro to begin a yearly conference series in London!

The event, co-chaired by Ian Shapiro and Arturo Beéche, will gather at the offices of SPINKS (near the British Museum) on April 25–26, 2015.

With our joint expertise, we have asked several notable writers to present lectures for the enjoyment of the audience. These talented authors include: Stefano Papi, Ilana D. Miller, Janet Ashton, Katie Tice, Katrina Warne,Ted Rosvall and Arturo Beéche. Several other writers and well-known authors have been invited to participate. As soon as we hear from them we will make an appropriate announcement.

Cost information will also be forthcoming. We are trying to price the event at an affordable rate similar to the one we charged at Royal Gatherings in The Hague.

For further information, do not hesitate to contact us at: books@eurohistory.com, kwarne12@gmail.com or aebeeche@mac.com

We are extremely excited about the sea of opportunity open to us and hope that Royal Gatherings in London will achieve the same level of success of Eurohistory’s yearly royalty conference in the San Francisco Bay Area, as well as that witnessed in Royal Gatherings in The Hague!

See you in London!
