"Fifty years ago in February 1952, while in Kenya on the beginning of a world tour, Princess Elizabeth ascended to the British Throne on the death of her father, King George VI, who the day before had stood on the tarmac at London's Heathrow airport waving her farewell. She returned to London as Queen, to be met at the foot of the aircraft steps by Prime Minister Winston Churchill.".
"The Monarchy is the constructed oral biography of the life of Elizabeth II and her fifty-year rule as the second-longest-reigning British sovereign in history. This candid look at the enduring monarch has been compiled from interviews that paint a rich picture of the private and the public life of the Queen.
With access to over one hundred friends and associates of the Royal Family, the authors have woven their in-depth conversations into a fascinating comprehensive personal profile that brings vividly to life the various strands of Queen Elizabeth's life."--BOOK JACKET.
