Elizabeth: an intimate portrait
On the shelf? Just pop in.
Queen Elizabeth II was Britain's longest-reigning monarch. This intimate, personal biography tells the story of her life, reign and times, from a perspective unlike any other. Gyles Brandreth writes the Queen's tale candidly with grace and sensitivity from the view of someone who met her, talked with her and kept a record of those conversations. Brandreth knew the Queen's husband well and knows the new King and Queen Consort. Told with authority, humour and moving honesty from a totally unique viewpoint, this is the biography of a woman who represented not only her people but stood as an emblem of fortitude and resilience.
