Queen of our times : the life of Queen Elizabeth II / Robert Hardman.

Hardman, Robert, (author.).

Summary:

"A definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the seventieth anniversary of her reign by a renowned royal biographer"-- Provided by the publisher.
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has reigned through more seismic social change than any monarch in British history-- and she has witnessed family crises on a scale not seen since the days of George III. Sealed off during the greatest peacetime emergency of modern times, she has stuck to her own maxim: "I have to be seen to be believed." Hardman includes unpublished Royal Family papers and photographs along with personal stories from other world leaders to tell the full story of one of the undisputed greats in a thousand years of monarchy. -- adapted from jacket
