Queen Victoria - The Original Classic Edition

Browne E

This book broke away from tradition and provided a deeper look at the Queen and all those around her by abandoning the notion of promoting a persons successess and strengths and instead paints the portrait of a human with weaknesses, motivations, strengths, and stuggles. The reader sees the Queen in relationships that become history and see the impact of personality in making decisions. <p> The book is engaging especially once Victoria moves beyond childhood and becomes Queen. The portrait of Edward and Victorias relationship is vivid. The story provides a rich understanding of places in the lives of the royal family that continue today, namely Balmoral, and give a glimpse at the royal family culture that can be seen in current events. It is more than a book about Queen Victoria. <p> Enjoy!
