Book description
Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, elder daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York, was born in London on 21 April 1926. Twenty-six years later, after a disastrous economic depression, a World War and a crisis that shook the Monarchy to its foundations, she ascended the throne as Queen Elizabeth II of England.
Douglas Liversidge tells the story of her life, her marriage, her family, but especially of the twenty-five years of her reign that have made Britain’s Monarchy the strongest in the world.
