Synopsis: Queen Elizabeth II’s life has been scrutinized since her uncle Edward VIII renounced the throne and her father was crowned King George VI in 1937. As the first monarch to allow television crews into the royal home, the only head of state remaining to have served in uniform during the Second World War, and the longest serving monarch in British history, the queen is beloved throughout the world. Queen Elizabeth II has become an unlikely source of feminist pride and remains a pillar of unity. This book features an intimate gaze into the life of British royalty and how the Windsors have come to challenge tradition.
