It's time again to enter the opulent and enigmatic world of royalty in another Royal Blood Mystery. Perhaps no story takes place in more sumptuously lavish setting or provides more mystery than that of Ludwig II of Bavaria, whose death in Lake Starnberg in 1886 remains a historical mystery. This is the story of a young German\xa0king with his head in the clouds, whose preoccupation with medieval romance led to his downfall.\nPledge support on Patreon for additional content.\nCheck out my novel, Manuscript Found!\xa0\xa0And check out the new show merch!\xa0\xa0\nFurther support the show by giving a one-time gift at paypal.me/NathanLeviLloyd or finding me on Venmo at @HistoricalBlindness, or by signing up for a 2-week trial of The Great Courses Plus.\xa0\xa0\nSome music on this episode is copyright Alex Kish.
