The Queen: 1926–2022

Product Information

But Elizabeth did her duty, the young princess pledging before her people that she would dedicate her whole life to the service of Britain and the Commonwealth. There’s a whole host of them to try and although the subject matter is almost secondary to the benefits they can offer, Queen fans can chill while giving Freddie a green moustache or John Deacon blue hair here. I also found it fascinating to see how the young Princess Elizabeth was brought into public life in preparation for her future role. The Queen and Prince Phillip did agree on a lot of things but at the same time there were instances when the Queen’s position clashed with the ideas of others including her family. Qui si racconta tutta la vita di Elisabetta dalla nascita fino ai primi mesi del 2022; scritto in maniera elegante ma non noiosa, il libro ripercorre momenti pubblici e privati di una donna diventata per caso regina ( e anche la più longeva regina) e che ha dimostrato a un mondo che non la riteneva all’altezza di, non solo essere una grande sovrana, ma anche una madre, nonna, moglie, zia, sempre perfetta e in linea con i tempi.

Ainda que não conheça a versão original, é fácil deduzir que não se trata de um problema do autor que é o mesmo de "Diana. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II: Platinum Jubilee Celebration, 70 Years 1952–2022, published by Pitkin, was released earlier this month in the UK and will be released in April in the United States. I really enjoyed reading this, getting more of an insight into the Queen’s long and vivid life and there were a few new facts I’d not come across before.Its a wonderful look ito how an ancient idea (a ruling monarchy) evolved into the 20th century and managed to maintain it's relevance. I can definitely see that this isn't a book to everyones tastes especially based on their leanings but if you are willing to remove her title and her work you willl read a story that spans recent history. One famous example of which was the surname that the Queen and Prince Phillip’s children should have.

Of course I was aware of most of the big events that have happened throughout Queen Elizabeth reign from watching the Crown TV series and the news etc over the years but this book offered a closer personal look at The Queen's responses to particular events. The world has changed so much in that time too; there are very few of any who are as well travelled, have met as many people and have seen as much social change and upheaval as she.In 1992, there is the infamous Annus Horribilis, and we see how Royal marriages break up and the new generation of Royal children grow up, Prince William marrying Catherine in 2011and Prince Harry marrying Meghan in 2018. It charts the Queen’s life from birth to present day and gives great insight into her personality, upbringing, family life, struggles and triumphs as the longest reigning monarch in history.

The queen’s sense of humour, love for her family and sense of duty are consistent themes throughout the book.Having previously read Elizabeth and Margaret which covered the life of the Royal sisters from birth to date I couldn’t wait to read this standalone book about the Queen. After the excitement of the Platinum Jubilee Weekend it was an absolute pleasure reading this fabulous book by Morton.

During her reign, the world has changed immeasurably, yet she has kept abreast of cultural and political changes, and remained a great role model for the commonwealth, despite her every move being under the microscope. This book gives honest accounts of times where the public may believe she fell from grace, such as the aftermath of the Aberfan tragedy.For example, I didn’t realise Buckingham Palace had been hit by a bomb in World War II or that there were suggestions of sending the Royal Family to Canada to keep them safe, which the King rejected very strongly.
