Beschreibung
A detailed, insightful, and at times dramatic look into the life of the late British Queen Elizabeth II, set against a historical, cultural, and media context. This is the second, updated edition of Dennison's book, supplemented with information from the final moments of this extraordinary monarch's life. Matthew Dennison offers readers a detailed, insightful, and at times dramatic view of Elizabeth's life, placing it within a historical, cultural, and media context. He pays particular attention to the early decades of the future queen, her childhood, adolescence, and family relationships, which continue to influence Elizabeth's worldview and her role as monarch. The author does not shy away from Elizabeth's weaknesses, yet it is undoubtedly a celebratory biography of a woman who has devotedly served Britain for seven decades, not just by 'posing with the crown,' but also through often challenging behind-the-scenes work. According to her grandson William, she 'certainly isn't interested in fame,' yet she undeniably ranks among the most recognizable inhabitants of our planet. This book will convince readers that Elizabeth deserves public interest not only due to her status but also as an exceptional personality.
