Download or read book Lilibet written by Carolly Erickson and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Lilibet, master biographer Carolly Erickson turns her skill at writing un-put-downable narrative to telling the remarkable story of Elizabeth II, Queen of England. With her customary psychological insight, historian Erickson traces the queen's gilded but often thorny path from her overprotected girlhood to her ascension to the throne at twenty-five to her personal and national difficulties as queen. Lilibet shows us an Elizabeth we thought we knew-but shows her in a different light: as a small, shy woman with a sly and at times raucous sense of humor, a woman who appears stiff in public, but in private enjoys watching wrestling on TV. A woman most at home among her horses and dogs. And a woman long annealed to heartbreak and sorrow, who has presided over the decline of Great Britain and the decline in prestige of her own Windsor dynasty. Far from being a light, gossipy treatment of a celebrity, Lilibet tells the queen's story from her point of view, letting the reader relive Elizabeth's long and eventful life with all its splendid ceremonies, momentous responsibilities and family clashes. Through it all we glimpse, as never before, the strong and appealing sovereign who has ruled over her people for half a century and more, a ruler of immense wealth, international esteem and high character whose daily life is grounded in the bedrock of common sense.

Download or read book Crowning Glory written by Charles Neilson Gattey and published by Shepheard Walwyn (Publishers) Limited. This book was released on 2022-10-03 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the passing of Queen Elizabeth II and our new King Charles III coming to the throne, what better time than now to probe into the merits of the monarchy? Charles Neilson Gattey provides the reader with an insight into the concept of the constitutional monarch, whose role, he states, is to look after the long-term interests of the nation above the changing spectrum of party political strife. "While monarchy is mainly a conservative force, helping to maintain stability, this very fundamental stability", Gattey argues, "enables the country to absorb more radical changes in its political and social structure than would otherwise be possible without the risk of disorder". Whilst 12 countries in Europe still continue to retain their monarchs, the death of Queen Elizabeth II has revived the debate about the future of the British Commonwealth and the transitioning to a republic state, with the removal of King Charles III as head of state. Crowning Glory offers the reader a perspective to this ongoing and highly relevant debate.

Book The Crown  The Official Companion  Volume 1

Download or read book The Crown The Official Companion Volume 1 written by Robert Lacey and published by Crown Archetype. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The official companion to the Emmy-winning Netflix drama chronicling the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, and starring Claire Foy and John Lithgow, The Crown by Peter Morgan, featuring additional historical background and beautifully reproduced archival photos and show stills Elizabeth Mountbatten never expected her father to die so suddenly, so young, leaving her with a throne to fill and a global institution to govern. Crowned at twenty-five, she was already a wife and mother as she began her journey towards becoming a queen. As Britain lifted itself out of the shadow of war, the new monarch faced her own challenges. Her mother doubted her marriage; her uncle-in-exile derided her abilities; her husband resented the sacrifice of his career and family name; and her rebellious sister embarked on a love affair that threatened the centuries-old links between the Church and the Crown. This is the story of how Elizabeth II drew on every ounce of resolve to ensure that the Crown always came out on top. Written by the show’s historical consultant, royal biographer Robert Lacey, and filled with beautifully reproduced archival photos and show stills, The Crown: The Official Companion: Volume 1 adds expert and in-depth detail to the events of the series, painting an intimate portrait of life inside Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street. Here is Elizabeth II as we’ve never seen her before.
