The Queen: 90 Majestic Years (Kindle Single)
The Queen is one of the most powerful women in the world and, at 90, its most experienced leader. In more than 60 years on the British throne, she has outlasted every United States President, British Prime Minister or Roman Catholic Pope. Elizabeth 11 is by far the most famous woman in the world yet less is known about her than any other public figure. She was born In London; in a private house, not a Palace or Castle, but she is at heart, someone who prefers the privacy and solitude of the country.
But what is she really like? What makes her laugh? How rich is she? How does she spend her days? How does she combine the roles of being Monarch, wife, mother and grandmother? What are her likes and dislikes? Do guests at Buckingham Palace really eat off gold plates? How does the Royal Household work? Did she sacrifice personal happiness on the altar of public duty when she became Queen? What have been her main achievements since she came to the throne? Has she succeeded in securing the future of the Windsor dynasty? What is her legacy?
All these questions and many more are answered in this fascinating book brought out to help celebrate this remarkable woman’s long and extraordinary life.
