From thence the Queen's Messenger conveys it to the Court. There are two fine linen-rooms at Windsor Castle. All linen used by the Queen is of the finest and best, the table linen being really magnificent. Many of the designs are repetitions of those used fifty or sixty years ago, and in most the insignia of the Garter, the Royal Arms, or the national emblems of Great Britain appear. All the linen used in the Palaces is gone through every year with the greatest care, and every piece that shows even the faintest sign of wear is put aside for presentation to hospitals and charitable institutions as "cast linen." It is a very vulgar error to believe, as many people do, that the "cast linen " given away by the Queen is body linen. More interesting than the linen-rooms is the big " China and Glass Room," which is approached through the principal store-room. So charmingly arranged is this large, bright apartment that the first view of it is like that of a very wellset-out shop. Wide shelves line the white walls, one set of which is inclosed by glass doors. It is to the topmost shelf of all that the eye is first attracted, by the line of large flower-pots of fine jasper Wedgwood ware. They are modern and were made expressly for use at the weddingbreakfast of Princess Beatrice and the late Prince Henry of Battenberg, which took place at Osborne. Of dinner services there is a great variety. Many of them are very valuable and of marvellous beauty, others again are merely quaint. But all seem superfluous where the meals are almost always served on solid gold and silver. The prettiest china is a full service of French (Chantilly) ware. The borders of each piece are of Royal blue and...

Book excerpt: This book about the marriage of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert tells the story of one of the most famous relationships in history. Their marriage was by no means a grand match for Victoria and was very unpopular with the British public. There were early troubles for the couple with power struggles, personality clashes, and unwelcome pregnancies; but they created a true partnership, a happy family life, and founded a dynasty. The book ends with Albert's early death, and how a man in the prime of life was worn out with the stresses and strains of being Victoria's husband. Victoria was pregnant for a third of her married life, and the book looks at how she dealt with pregnancy, childbirth, and being a mother. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were married at the Chapel Royal, St James's Palace in London, on 10 February 1840, when they were both twenty years old. For her, their marriage followed a whirlwind romance and Albert would be a life-long passion. For him, it was a successful outcome of long-laid plans - marrying Victoria was his career. They were in an unusual position for their time, because it was Victoria who was the sovereign and Albert had a supporting role. Their marriage would succeed, but stormy waters lay ahead. 'Victoria and Albert' uses some of Victoria's own words from her journal and letters to help tell the story and is beautifully illustrated throughout with portraits and other memorabilia from the author's collection. This short book is intended to be light-hearted and easy-to-read and should appeal to anyone who likes history, or follows royalty, or is interested in people's personal stories. 'Victoria and Albert' is the second of three books about 'The Colourful Personal Life of Queen Victoria'. They focus on the story of Victoria as a woman - her personal life, the events that formed her character, and the relationships that were important to her. The first book, 'Young Victoria', looked at her early years, including her difficult childhood and how she came to the throne aged only eighteen. The third book, 'The Widowed Queen', will cover the long years of her widowhood after Albert's early death, as the doyenne of sovereigns and grandmamma of Europe.

This book was released on 2017-01-05 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queen Victoria: A Life Worth Living! Queen Victoria was the queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 1837-1901. She was the second longest reign of any other British monarch in history. Queen Victoria was the only child of Victoria Saxe-Saalfield-Coburg and Edward, the duke of Kent. She was the queen of Great Britain for 63 years. Till date, she is the second longest ruling British monarch after Queen Elizabeth II. Victoria's reign saw advances in the industry, great cultural expansion, communications, and science; and the building of London Underground and railways. She died in England in 1901. The British Parliamentary politics went through a major transition during the Queen Victoria's reign, which includes splitting of the Tory Party and forming of the Liberal and Conservative parties. This started a succession of opposing administrations. Victoria played an important role of a mediator between arriving and departing prime ministers. She was particularly very fond of Benjamin Disraeli, a Conservative Prime Minister, who helped to restore the public opinion following Queen Victoria's long seclusion due to the death of her beloved, Albert. The book is a detailed account of this longest ruling monarch in British history also known as the Victorian era.
