Questo libro è arrivato al momento per me più fondamentale per capire e sapere tutto su questa donna fantastica che è stata un’icona è un vero punto di riferimento per tutti.This meticulously researched Queen book does exactly what it says on the tin. The stories behind every song the band released are enriched with well-written profiles of not only all four members, but also the likes of Mary Austin and the aforementioned Norman Sheffield. I started reading this book on the eve of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and it really helped me to appreciate her achievements. It charts the Queen’s life from birth to present day and gives great insight into her personality, upbringing, family life, struggles and triumphs as the longest reigning monarch in history. It was a fascinating read, full of facts and stories that I’d never heard before. Going through the Queen's life so far, up to the point of the Platinum Jubilee, Andrew Morton offers up first hand accounts and supplementary information for the events we have experienced during the reign of Elizabeth II. It gives some insights into the dynamics between different family members across generations which was the bit I really enjoyed. I have tried not to read the tabloids with regards to the Royal Family for many years and whilst this book is not endorsed by 'The Firm' as far as I know, it seems to have more substance than the tabloids. This is a lovely way of getting another perspective of HM Elizabeth. Would definitely recommend it to others who are so inclined. He grabbed me and said, I like you.

Although the Queen is the head of the monarchy and our ruling sovereign, she is also an extraordinary woman. She plays the role of Queen but her other simultaneous roles include daughter, sister, wife, mother and grandmother, great grandmothers etc. She continues to work and at the same time raise and guide a family. May Our Lord receive the Queen to His Side with great pleasure, for our Queen is a humble, faithful and dutiful servant of Him. She guided His church and nation through highs and lows, and showed compassion when people needed it most. She is the anchor for the Commonwealth in promoting peace and unity. We sorely missed her presence and sense of humour. May she find her peace and reunite with her beloved husband at last. Amen In what is her Platinum Jubilee Year of Celebration this book is perfect timed and something I think I could read again. The book is dvided into broad sections that deal with key events in her life – her childhood, marriage and coronation are covered in detail. There’s less detail as you get closer to current events.It was a more digestible read than I was expecting. Books like this are usually hard going for me with information overload but this one works. After the excitement of the Platinum Jubilee Weekend it was an absolute pleasure reading this fabulous book by Morton.
