Product Description
The definitive biography of the Queen that reveals the real woman behind the public figure. Sarah Bradford unravels Elizabeth's family secrets - how she was influenced by her father; her troubled relationships with her children; the story of her difficult marriage; and how this remarkable monarch has coped with the pressures of being a mother who is also the most famous woman in the world. 'The only book that could overtake it is the autobiography, which in this case will never be written' Spectator

Informative and easy to read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Elizabeth : A Biography Of Her Majesty The Queen (Paperback)
This is an in depth and informative book which at the same time remains very easy to read and enjoyable. It looks at Elizabeth's relationship with her family, husband, children, the Windsors, her advisors and her Prime Ministers and gives you an insight into Elizabeth as an individual. It gives you an indication of what has shaped her, what interests her and helps the reader understand her behaviour during the more difficult periods of her reign. This is about as intimate a biography as can be possible given Elizabeth's status and career and Sarah Bradford does a good job.

Excellent reading,
By A Customer
This review is from: Elizabeth : A Biography Of Her Majesty The Queen (Paperback)
Its fluent and personal style makes excellent reading; the historical context is fascinating and personal issues are treated discreetly but openly. A must for everyone interested in Her Majesty, her life, her job, her background and british history.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Superb,
This review is from: Elizabeth : A Biography Of Her Majesty The Queen (Paperback)
This is an exceptionally well researched and written biography of Her Majesty the Queen. It is by far the best biography I have read of her. It should be read alongside Ben Pimlott's biography of the Queen.
