Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Only the Governess It was only the other day that Launcelot Chudleigh came upon a half-finished portrait that he had painted of Dossie as a child. He was moving some large dusty portfolios that had long blocked up a corner of his studio, when the rotten strings of one gave way, and out tumbled a miscellaneous collection of hastily-drawn sketches, crude studies, sunny little bits of scenery, here and there a larger piece with the colours only half washed in, as though the brush had been flung away in despair; groups of figures with no particular background, a gondola floating in a very hazy sea, an Italian peasant with a Madonna face and the inevitable large-eyed babe in her arms, a little flower-girl with a gay kerchief on her head and a string of brown beads round her neck. Launcelot turned them all over with a droll, humorous smile. He was amused, as middle-aged people often are when they come unexpectedly on some toy or relic of their childhood. Ah, well! he had been young too, like other people. He had attempted and had failed; and, of course, his failures had seemed pathetic to him. Youth seldom finishes what it begins: it is ready to set the world on fire with its hasty energy; then comes reality, disappointment, the plain prose of life. Launcelot was moralizing over his sketches when one fluttered slowly to his feet. He uttered an exclamation as he picked it up and brushed the dust off it very tenderly. It was the portrait of a child, but not a pretty child. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Royal Governess written by Wendy Holden and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the childhood years of Queen Elizabeth II, one of the most famous women who ever lived, a young governess helped shape her into the icon the world knows today. In 1933, twenty-two-year-old Marion Crawford accepts the role of a lifetime, tutoring the little Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose. Her one stipulation to their parents is that she bring some doses of normalcy into their sheltered and privileged lives. At Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle and Balmoral, Marion defies stuffy protocol to take the princesses on tube trains, swimming at public baths, and on joyful Christmas shopping trips at Woolworth’s. From her ringside seat at the heart of the British monarchy she witnesses the trauma of the Abdication, the glamour of the Coronation, the onset of World War II. She steers the little princesses through it all, as close as a mother. As Hitler’s planes fly over Windsor, she shelters her charges in the castle dungeons (not far from where the Crown Jewels are hidden in a biscuit tin). Afterwards, she is present when Elizabeth first sets eyes on Philip, her future husband. But being beloved confidante to the Windsor family comes at huge personal cost. Marriage, children, her own views: all are compromised by proximity to royal glory. In this majestic story of love, sacrifice and allegiance, bestselling novelist Holden brings to life the early years before Queen Elizabeth II became monarch. “This captivating page-turner whisks readers back in time to Buckingham Palace in 1933…A majestic story that delves into the incredible life of Queen Elizabeth II before she took her place on the throne.”—Woman’s World
