Description

The Queen is a comprehensive and authoritative biography of the woman at the centre of the British monarchy. Written by renowned biographer Ben Pimlott, this updated edition provides a rigorous and objective examination of Elizabeth II's life and reign.

Through a wide range of sources, including interviews, diaries, letters, and papers from the Royal Archives, Pimlott sheds light on the social, political, and psychological aspects of the Queen's life, as well as the changing role of the monarchy in the British Constitution.

This book is a vital read for anyone interested in public life in Britain, past, present, and to come. It offers a gripping yet sensitive account of one of the most publicised yet least known figures of our time, making it a must-have for anyone seeking a deep understanding of the British monarchy.
