Product Description

Product Description

A tribute to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, consort to King George VI and mother of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II. Year by year Hugh Massingberd explores the life and career of this much-loved figure, from her Scottish childhood and presentation at court as Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon to her marriage to the future King, giving him strength and working at his side throughout World War II, and raising her daughters Elizabeth and Margaret, to her role as Queen Mother - in her nineties still an active member of the royal family - and a keen fisherwoman, gardener and racehorse owner too.

Wonderful photographic history of Britain's Queen Mother 23 Sep 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
The photographs in this book are wonderful. A complete history of the life of the Queen Mother told through the pictures that appeared in The Daily Telegraph, this is a great buy.

A stunning array of photographs 9 Oct 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Many of the photographs in this book are not new. They have been seen before in other publications. Athough there are some good new selections of photos used. In all cases however, the photographic reproductions in this book are excellent. A very nice, personal gift copy that I would be pleased to give to a friend.

She's the Queen mum she is 31 July 2001
By henryraddick@hotmail.com - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This is a lavish guide to the practically indistructable mother of the British Sovereign. She was Elizabeth Bowes-Lyons to her fellow debs in 1919, she was Queen as George VI's wife, but to all of us she is just the Queen Mum, bless her; the plucky lady with the common touch, who shrugged off gunshot wounds after a quarrel about gambling debts in an East End boozer, the massive-armed matriarchal powerhouse who has no time for nonces or liberty-takers. A marvelous book.
