| ELIZABETH |
|
The British monarchy has undergone great changes since Elizabeth succeeded her father, George VI, in 1952, and the story of Elizabeth and her family is in many ways the story of those changes. Yet ‘Elizabeth’ is not only a great family saga; it is an in-depth portrayal of a very private woman in her public and private roles.
Sarah Bradford answers questions that have long been on royalty-watchers’ minds: What is Elizabeth really like? How has she coped with the pressures of being an executive woman and the mother of four children? How rich is she? How does the Palace really operate?
Three of her children’s marriages have broken down, and there have long been rumours of turbulence in her own marriage. Has Elizabeth failed in her personal life while succeeding in her public role – and has her family’s behaviour undermined her widely praised performance as queen, jeopardising the future of the monarchy itself?
In this rich and candid biography, Sarah Bradford answers such questions with unrivalled insight and with a wealth of detail about the lives of Elizabeth and the other Windsors. ‘Elizabeth’ is the most revealing portrait of the Queen and the family she heads. Hardback. |

| A GUIDE TO BRITAIN'S ROYAL HERITAGE |
|
This unique book is the complete guide to the past and present of Britain’s rich and romantic royal heritage. In the wake of the Roman occupation of Britain, dynamic crosscurrents of Celtic, Germanic and Scandinavian kingship worked to create a powerful British royal tradition. With his successful invasion of England in 1066, William the Conqueror imposed unity on England under the Crown, an act that gives the country the distinction of having the longest tradition of continuous stable rule – more than 1,000 years.

| THE KING AND THE VICE QUEEN |
|
Although George IV's affair with the Catholic widow Maria Fitzherbert is well known, few have even heard of his last great love, Elizabeth Conyngham; the woman many dubbed his 'Vice Queen'. For a decade, as offical mistress, Elizabeth's greed for jewels, her constant pressure on the king to promote her friends and family, and her determined political influence, caused a political conflict between the king and his ministers. Her presence at court provoked quarrels with the Duke of Wellington and led ultimately to the suicide of Lord Castlereagh. The satirical artists of the day made her the subject of over 300 scurrilous cartoons. Tom Ambrose sets out to chart the course of this scandalous affair from its early beginnings in the overheated salons of the Brighton Pavilion to the King's declining years at Windsor. All the great characters of Regency England enter the story, from the Duke of Wellington to the blackmailing society courtesan Hariette Wilson. Hardback. |
